Hi Guys,
How large (in litres) is the 406's washer reservoir? Mine is a 406 saloon HDi, with no headlight washers -- don't know if that makes a difference? Reason being is I've bought some Sonax ClearView screenwash, and need to know the volume of the tank so I can dilute it appropriately.
Many thanks!
Benjamin

Re: Washer reservoir volume?
Get an extra container and dilute the screen wash in that. I use a 2 litre milk bottle. I can't remember the reservoir volume, got a feeling it's about 4 or 5 litres.

Would you believe 11 litres?

Last time I ran the washer reservoir dry, I used one and a half 5-litre jugs to refill it.
No headlight washers, if that makes a difference.

The Volvo's are 5ltrs or 10ltrs (with headlamp wash) so probably they're all about the same.
