Are the filling locations for antifreeze and windshield washer fluid the same?
1 Answers
Antifreeze and windshield washer fluid are not filled in the same location. Windshield washer fluid filling port is located in the engine compartment: Open the engine compartment and look for a blue cap (some may be other colors). The cap will have a windshield symbol or a similar water spray symbol. Pour the windshield washer fluid directly into it, and it usually takes about 1.5 liters to fill. Antifreeze should be added by opening the expansion tank cap: The expansion tank is a transparent container marked with minimum and maximum levels. Fill the antifreeze between these two levels. Never open the cap to add antifreeze when the engine is hot, as the cooling system is under high pressure. Opening the cap when hot may cause high-temperature coolant to spray out, leading to dangerous consequences.
