It’s all fun and games until you get leaking flaps.
 
So I don’t know if there is superiority there or not with the TD5 and earlier. Regards screenwash this is what I use: https://www.halfords.com/motoring/motoring...24322.html It’s good down to -20.C, I have never had it freeze in the last couple of years I’ve used it. It doesn’t get thickened or coagulate in the bottom of the tank either, in the summer there is a lighter one you can use that Amazon sells that is slightly more slick and perhaps a bit more useful for bug clear. But the one in the above link, the winter one I tend to stick to. At one time I had to get it in person at a branch, but now they do delivery to door as well. If you find you seem to be losing a lot of washer fluid as well, and perhaps more than expected, try replacing the bottle cap, over time they get loose and the leak out some when driving around. It can slosh, so no sooner do you fill it up, it’ll be half gone and leaked out the loose cap. I found I was losing quite a bit, a bit more I though than I had used as was topping it up fairly often, it was the cap needed replacing, helped a lot. No Guts, No Glory. 🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴🇮🇪🇺🇸⛽️🛢️⚙️🧰💪 |
