Cooling fluid in windshield washer tank
Hi, On my 2012 Q5 (2l petrol) I accidentally put engine Cooling fluid in windshield washer tank... about 2.5 liters, what do you guys recommend? I think if I get it to the dealership they will charge me big time. I of course still didn't use the washer... thanks for your help! |
Siphon all the coolant out of the washer tank. Then fill it with water, pull the hose where it feeds the washer nozzles and put in in a clear jug. Run the pump until the fluid comes out clear (make sure that the wipers will not hit the hood with it open, I've never tried it). Then siphon out the water and fill with the "blue stuff". Not a big deal, just don't run the coolant through the washer nozzles because it will make a mess on the windshield and worse, it'll damage your paint. Good Luck.
