Frozen Washwipe Nozzles

[Harrydavy]

This morning, driving over the Vale of Belvoir the temp dropped to -3 and my washwipe nozzles froze up! Has anyone else had this problem? When I got to Grantham the temp rose to -1 and I could use my washwipe again! Strange eh?

:) sounds funny for peoples who uses their cars (sometimes) at -50C :D

the answer is simple - use winter wash fluid, not summer one (and for sure - not water) :)

Well I would never have thought of that! :shutit: Der! Strange considering the washwipe is from its last service a few weeks ago!

The washwipes fine just the nozzles (that actually froze five minutes apart?!?)

was prob just the outlet to the nozzle that froze with the small temperature change. Once i had -25C neat wash in the tank, and as soon as it hit the screen it formed a sheet of ice! i now use -40c neat wash in winter.
