Hi all, any recommendations on washer fluid. Just drained my bottle after filling with cheap supermarket type washer fluid. It left a blue residue all over the place.

Used Tesco stuff for years without issues. Just wish we had a low washer warning. I guess at least it gets me to open the bonnet once a week.

Never heard of them. Maybe some kind of insulated cover for the washer bottle and tubes would help. It's been so cold I'm not sure a 50/50 mix is enough to keep the washers working first thing on a morning.

However good the fluid it that you put in the bottle, the jets will still freeze over in the coldest weather. takes a bit of engine heat before they warm up.

No the jets are not heated.
