pour antifreeze properly
In recent weeks, many of our customers had always problems with the windshield washer antifreeze. Every time the big freeze is freeze, a freeze protection despite the car wash. What is the problem?
Well, it depends on mixing ratio's right!
Often the customer just a liter is filled washer antifreeze and filled the rest with water. Most of the wash tank take far more than 2 liters, 4.5 liters eg Seat Ibiza, Seat Leon 5.5 liters, 6 liters Seat Alhambra.
on each bottle of antifreeze mixing ratio is specified, which is tailored to the particular drug. For example, Frost protection from TEGEE: If this is filled of pure antifreeze reaches -65 degrees, at a mixing ratio of 1:1 to -20 degrees and at a ratio of 2:1 to -30 degrees.
In many cases, the correct ratio but unfortunately not observed and then moves in the wrong direction. Example: Seat Alhambra with 6 liter; fills in when an empty container 1 liter Scheibenfrostzschutz and the rest is filled with water, this corresponds to a mixing ratio of 1:5, then this is for temperatures around 10 degrees too little!
We therefore strongly recommend not to save on antifreeze and the correct mixing ratio be observed. Our service advisors and car repair can advise you and help you to find the correct mix ratio.
