How do I mix up my own windshield washing liquid for low temperatures? Well, that's what I figure too - they can't ALL be bad. But then - why have none of them worked? Well, will see if sticking to the same brand helps. It's not very cold yet (only about -4C) so I haven't had any problems yet. |

How do I mix up my own windshield washing liquid for low temperatures? If it's -30F (-34C), I'll stay home. :P But if I can get it to not freeze down to 0F, I'll be impressed nonetheless. Checked out those recipes, they still rely on alcohol. Looks like that's as far as I'll get... |

How do I mix up my own windshield washing liquid for low temperatures? Hmm, the icing on the window has also been a permanent problem. Do you mean that a quality liquid doesn't do that? O_O |

How do I mix up my own windshield washing liquid for low temperatures? Could it make a difference that it's a different brand every time? It's something I'm going to test out now - sticking to the same brand all winter long. My theory is that maybe they each use a different antifreeze, and the mix creates problems (I don't believe that the reservoir can be 100% emptied without surgical invasion). |

How do I mix up my own windshield washing liquid for low temperatures? I'm pretty certain I pour stuff from bottles that have labels in the -15C to -20C range. And I always empty the reservoir before refilling, especially when transitioning from summer to winter liquid (meaning that I wait until pressing the switch leaves my window dry). The cap isn't particularly tight, though it's not exactly loose either. Just not hermetic. But I find it hard to believe that there could be a fast enough evaporation to make a difference. |

How do I mix up my own windshield washing liquid for low temperatures? How do I check those things, and if they were clogged, wouldn't I have problems all year round? |

How do I mix up my own windshield washing liquid for low temperatures? I tend agree with it too, though it is peculiar that from half a dozen brands none were any better. Can there be some permanent residue from old liquids? Also - I realize that it will not be cost-efficient, but better that than no liquid at all. |

What do these wheel markings mean? Oh, but they aren't original Volvo disks. Judging by the pictures I'd say it's a safe guess that they were made by Autec. |

What do these wheel markings mean? My own Volvo S60, year 2004 edition. However I'm not sure if I shouldn't delete the question now, since I already sold them. :P But perhaps the explanation might be of use to someone else. That is, if there is something to explain at all, and all these characters aren't manufacturer-specific. |
