2L Genuine Mercedes Benz screenwash Mercedes benz Genuine Parts

Product Information

There is little aroma, no foaming and the fluid turned to ice as soon as the temperature dipped below zero. In the cleaning test it left smears from the oil and had no more effect on the glue than plain water.

When I came to test the washers there was no improvement. The passenger side jets are weak but they continue to squirt as long as stalk control is pressed. The driver's side jets squirt just once as the stalk control is pressed then cease altogether. There are no leaks anywhere. I have come to the conclusion that maybe the tubing between the pump and jets is kinked or clogged somewhere or that the pump is not working at optimum efficiency. The pump makes all the right sounds and water is being ejected from the jets but apparently at low pressure. Mercedes Summerfit should be mixed with water. This obviously dilutes the concentrate and has enough moisture in the washer fluid to cleanse the dust and dirt. The Winterfit has some antifreeze to prevent the fluid from getting frozen. This may not be necessary when temperatures don’t dip close to the freezing point, but it is necessary for colder regions. Experts recommend that the concentrate for the summer months should be used with distilled water. Automakers always recommend distilled water for any cleaning because it is more effective and leaves a stainless splendor.

The company has opted to make the products look different by colour (and smell) coding them according to the temperature protection level. The -20C liquid we selected is green and ‘Citrus’ flavour. As you might expect from the well-known and respected brand like Autoglym, the screenwash did well in the cleaning tests – but it’s expensive to use at winter temperatures. There are variants available today. Choosing the best windshield washer fluid for Mercedes requires choosing the ideal variant. For instance, you might wonder if the best winter washer fluid for cold weather is the blue windshield washer fluid you can get at a store. You can use it, but it is ineffective at cleaning the windshield. You will be able to prevent the fluid from freezing during winter, but the blue fluid doesn’t contribute anything to cleansing the surface of the windshield. There are some other options, some of which are more affordable.

Unless your classic is very old, you’ll need to make sure there is some fluid available when you press the button to wash the windscreen. In winter it will help get rid of road grime and salt, in summer it helps clear fly splats, dust and diesel film.

First we calculated the costs of each in their winter and summer mixes. For the former we chose coverage down to about -10C, where there was a choice of mixes.
