Where to Add Windshield Washer Fluid for FAW-Volkswagen Magotan?
2 Answers
Volkswagen Magotan's windshield washer fluid reservoir is located at the lower right corner of the engine compartment, with a washer symbol on the cap. The following are the functions of windshield washer fluid: 1. Anti-freeze function: When driving in winter, due to the temperature difference inside and outside, a lot of frost will accumulate on the windshield, affecting the driver's vision. Spraying windshield washer fluid can solve this problem. Because the fluid contains substances such as alcohol, it has an anti-freeze effect and can melt frost. 3. Anti-fog function: Windshield washer fluid can form a protective film on the glass to prevent fog from forming on the glass, thereby avoiding traffic accidents caused by impaired driver visibility.
I've been driving a Magotan for many years, and the windshield washer fluid reservoir is located in the engine compartment, just on the left side near the base of the windshield. When you pop the hood, you'll immediately spot the small blue cap with a windshield washer icon on it. Be careful not to confuse it with the coolant or brake fluid reservoirs—the coolant has a pink cap, while the brake fluid has a black one. Filling it is simple: just wait until the engine cools down, use dedicated windshield washer fluid, and pour it in up to the marked line—don't overfill. I make it a habit to check the fluid level monthly, especially in winter when it's prone to freezing. Using antifreeze washer fluid helps protect the nozzles from clogging. If you notice weak spray performance, top it up early—driving on the highway with a dirty windshield from rain and grime is dangerous. These small habits keep the car more durable and hassle-free.
