The location for adding windshield washer fluid in the King Kong is under a blue cap in the engine compartment. Opening this cap reveals the filler neck for the washer fluid. Washer fluid capacity: It can be fully filled with 4L each time. Automotive windshield washer fluid: Automotive windshield washer fluid is widely used for quick cleaning and brightening of various glass surfaces including car windshields, rearview mirrors, home windows, office glass, door/window glass, and decorative glass. Washer fluids are categorized into summer formula, winter formula, and special anti-freeze types. High-quality washer fluid is made from deionized water with various eco-friendly additives, featuring functions like dirt removal, anti-freeze, anti-static, and anti-corrosion. Some premium washer fluids also offer additional benefits such as rapid snow/ice melting, anti-glare, and anti-fog properties, which significantly contribute to driving safety.

I've been driving a King Kong for several years and handle minor tasks like adding windshield washer fluid myself. You open the front hood, and on the left side of the engine compartment near the fender, there's a palm-sized plastic reservoir with a blue cap engraved with the windshield spray icon. I remember almost making a mistake the first time—the red cap next to it is the coolant reservoir. Don't pour too quickly when filling; the washer fluid tends to splash out since the opening isn't very large. In winter, if temperatures drop, you need to switch to antifreeze washer fluid. Once, I forgot to change it, and the water line froze and cracked, costing over 300 yuan to replace the part. Now, I always keep two bottles handy, using the one with a -25°C freezing point below zero. Actually, using windshield washer concentrate mixed with purified water works too, but tap water with impurities can easily clog the spray nozzles.

As a car newbie, I didn't even know how to open the hood when I first bought my King Kong. Later I learned that to add windshield washer fluid, you need to open the engine compartment and look for a small blue cap with a fan-shaped water droplet symbol in the left corner. The salesperson said this reservoir has about a 3-liter capacity, with "Windshield Washer" written in English on the cap. I was super nervous during my first refill, afraid I might pour it into the adjacent pink coolant reservoir. Turns out there was nothing to worry about - the blue cap and washer symbol are very distinctive. Nowadays I usually let car wash technicians top it up, but when buying myself, I just get universal washer fluid from supermarkets - a 7-8 yuan bottle lasts about three months in summer. After refilling, always check the spray pattern - scattered streams might indicate clogged nozzles.

Last month, my wife's King Kong couldn't spray washer fluid, so she asked me to refill it. Opening the hood, I found the blue cap on the left side with a small fountain symbol. The translucent reservoir showed the fluid level - just top it up. I took the opportunity to teach her to identify other fluid reservoirs: yellow cap for engine oil, green for brake fluid, red for coolant tank, while the washer fluid reservoir always has the most noticeable blue system. I recommend keeping a small bottle of concentrated washer fluid in the car for emergencies when you run out. Last time it rained, the spray seemed weak - turns out there was air in the lines, but spraying continuously for ten seconds cleared it. Remember to use antifreeze formula in winter, especially in northern regions where temperatures drop below minus ten degrees.

The windshield washer fluid reservoir is located at the upper left corner of the engine compartment, marked by a blue cap with a windshield icon on the plastic container. Don't believe online about needing tools—just twist the cap open by hand to refill. The container has a MAX fill line, and filling it to three-quarters capacity is ideal, leaving room for expansion in winter. Plain windshield washer fluid works fine; the five-yuan bottles at gas stations are sufficient. Once, a relative mistakenly added mineral water, which later caused algae growth and clogged the spray nozzles. By the way, if parked outdoors long-term, it's best to cover the opening with cardboard to keep dust out. The design of the King Kong model is quite thoughtful—the filler neck is more ergonomically placed than in Volkswagen models, eliminating the need to bend over and reach into tight corners.

Last time during , the mechanic mentioned that windshield washer fluid should be replaced quarterly, which made me finally notice the filling location on my King Kong. When you open the hood, the blue-capped reservoir with a 5cm diameter at the front left corner is the one—marked with a water droplet and wavy line icon. Before topping it up yourself, clean dust around the opening to prevent debris from falling in. Using a funnel makes pouring easier; a $0.5 plastic funnel from the supermarket works fine. Also, the washer fluid reservoir connects to a pump motor—running it dry could burn out the motor, costing over $50 in repairs. It’s best to refill when only one-third remains. Always use neutral pH washer fluid, as strong acidity/alkalinity can corrode the tubing. In winter, opt for antifreeze fluid with a freezing point at least 10°C below your local minimum temperature for safety.
