    2017 Discovery TDV6 First Edition Namib Orange

    Windscreen washer fluid overfill

    So this isn’t my first car from the Landrover stable, having owned a freelander, D4, RRS and now a D5
    So it came as a bit of a surprise to me that when i filled up my washer fluid, it did what it normally did…..
    all the way to the top, WAIT….
    burp….


    little bit more in and happy days….


    Well the car then decides to then do a wee of washer fluid…. From the wheel arch..


    Is there an overflow? ( I bet there isn’t)

    No, it doesn't have an overflow but when it vomits back the screen wash as you're filling it, it dribbles down in to the wheel arch.

    We have had same thing happen each time we fill to brim.

    Doesn't appear to be a problem and we are not refilling the reservoir more often than expected so suspect this isn't a leak.
