How Long Does a Full Tank of Windshield Washer Fluid Last?
1 Answers
It mainly depends on the frequency of using the windshield washer fluid. Generally, a full tank can last for about 3 months. Windshield Washer Fluid: Windshield washer fluid should have protective properties for both the windshield and wiper blades, providing care and protection for the vehicle during normal use. Some branded windshield washer fluids are formulated with various surfactants and additives, uniquely capable of repairing minor scratches on the windshield surface by forming a protective film, ensuring comprehensive care for the windshield. Specially added corrosion inhibitors ensure no corrosive effects on any metals, protecting the car's paint, wiper blades, and rubber components. Precautions: The duration of windshield washer fluid in a new car primarily depends on usage frequency. Refill as needed, as there is no fixed refill cycle. Never use tap water. Minerals in tap water can clog the windshield washer fluid lines. If the air temperature drops below freezing, use a windshield washer fluid with sufficient antifreeze components. Avoid operating the windshield washer continuously for several seconds or when the fluid reservoir is empty, as this can cause the washer motor to overheat, leading to costly repairs.
