The liquid coming from the windscreen washers has recently got thicker. It looks quite greasy. I take it this is probably due to lower temperatures. Does it mean I have too much screen wash in the bottle or too little? To clean the bottle out you have to remove the front bumper. One could siphon out the contents.Any help apreciated.Mikey

Personally I would syphon some out and put in a bottle in the freezer. That will tell you if it's solidifying by cold temperatures or not.

Good idea Dave. That sounds worth a go. Happy Christmas by the way. Mike.

It is not just low temeratures but the old fluid is degrading chemically. The best approach is to get the old bottle out and properly clean it. But if that is a lot of trouble, either syphon the old stuff out, or run it out on the washer pump. Then flush lots of warm slightly soapy water thorough it, agitating if possible through the filler neck. Can you use a long wire wine bottle washer brush to get the gunge out. Big flush through with warm water, THEN put in the new washer fluid.
