Drives are being warned of a screen wash mistake which is common in the colder temperatures which have hit the country. When preparing their cars for ice and snow, some motorists can forget how to dilute their screen wash.
Many are aware of the need to keep their washer fluid topped up, but others aren't and more drivers still forget to change the dilution ratio depending on the time of the year. Auto experts at Dick Lovett explained that doing it wrong could be damaging for your car, reports The Mirror.
They said: "Too much water could end up freezing your windscreen washer system, as dilution ratios for winter weather are completely different from the summer."
