What Causes Rapid Consumption of Windshield Washer Fluid in Cars?

[BrooklynDella]

There may be four reasons for the rapid consumption of water in the car's reservoir: Poorly designed cooling system: This is generally not an issue with mature car models, especially new cars without such faults, so this can be disregarded. Leakage: Usually, leakage points leave very obvious traces. Poor circulation leading to rapid consumption: It's advisable to have a professional mechanic check this. Note that when adding antifreeze, it should be done after the engine has cooled down. Antifreeze entering the cylinder and being burned: If antifreeze enters the cylinder and is burned or seeps into the oil pan, in mild cases, there will be no water in the oil pan, but the engine may not perform well. In more severe cases, water may be present in the oil pan, causing unstable engine operation. Do not immediately assume the issue is with the cylinder head gasket—a damaged intake manifold gasket can also cause coolant to enter the cylinder, as some engines have water passages in the intake manifold.
