When adding windshield washer fluid to the Trumpchi GS8, it is typically located in the engine compartment. The washer fluid cap is marked with a fan-shaped pattern and is usually blue in color. Simply open the filler port to add the fluid, with a total capacity of 3.1 liters. Below are the relevant requirements for adding windshield washer fluid: 1. There are not many specifications for windshield washer fluid, but never use tap water. 2. The minerals in tap water can clog the windshield washer fluid lines. Here is an introduction to the types of windshield washer fluid currently available on the market: 1. Summer-use windshield washer fluid, winter antifreeze windshield washer fluid, and special-effect antifreeze windshield washer fluid. 2. Summer-use windshield washer fluid is mainly used to remove insect residues from the windshield.
Adding windshield washer fluid to the Trumpchi GS8 is super easy in my daily routine. After popping the hood, locate the blue cap container with a wiper icon at the front-left side of the car or near the engine—that’s the washer fluid reservoir. Gently twist off the cap, use a small funnel to prevent spills, and pour in store-bought windshield-specific cleaning solution, making sure not to exceed the max fill line marked on the reservoir. I recommend opting for antifreeze-type fluid, especially in northern winters, as plain water can freeze and damage the system. In summer, use premixed fluid directly or dilute concentrated solutions with water. After filling, securely close the cap and test the spray by pulling the wiper stalk inside the car. If the flow is weak, the nozzle might be clogged—just gently clear it with a fine needle. Check the fluid level every two months to ensure clean sprays for safer driving and better visibility.
