10% motif under the hood

[Peter Collins]

While topping my washer bottle up I noticed a small motif embossed into the black plastic of part of the engine cover. It looks like a headlight motif and along side of it also embossed is " 10% ". I have searched my hand book but can find no reference to this. Does anyone what this is for?

10% of glicol in water?

I understand certain motor cycle gang members are called 1% ers ⚰️but don't know the answer to this one

If it was the dilution rate for Glycol in water why is it embossed on both sides?

Months old topic, but anyhow; I assume you meant the black plastic trim near the headlights....The washer fluid was the event that lead to the discovery of the embossed 10%, I think these 2 things are not being connected to eachother otherwise.

 

I expect it to be based on regulations. Being able to, for example, vertically adjust your headlamps up or down by only 10%.
