Washer Bottle Capacity

[Darren25]

Hi all,

Silly question but does anybody know how big the washer bottle is on a 182?

Don't want to mix to much and have it hanging around!

Cheers

Just pour screenwash in, then top up with water.

Finally had my front washers disconnected today to stop the bloody leaking!

Remember they piss away loads of it!

How do I know if i'm getting the right mixture if I do this??

I need to get round to doing this. There not leaking but they waste a lot of screenwash and do nothing!

I've got a guide for disconnecting them if you want it.

When i went to halford concentrated was same price as pre mixed, water is free.

Just guess? I don't put a lot of thought into the concentration levels of my screen wash.

or if it helps, 1 glug screenwash to 5 glugs water.

Yes please, that should come in handy. I'll PM you my email address now.

Biggest rip off ever! I can make double/triple as much as ready mixed for the same price.

Thanks a lot for that. Will use it when the weather gets better!

No probs, easiest way, i had them replaced last march, guess what they are leaking again!

 

[Darren25]

The end of one of mine has fallen off so it just squirts straight up in the air! I figured it's easier to disconnect them than replace it.
