That stinky BMW fluid is good for something!

Try methyl alcohol in the washer. About 1/4 to 1/5t ratio. Pour only and only when engine is cold.
No, I am sick and tired and a more nauseous from that super stinky fluid that smells like nail polish remover. The stuff I got is the new rain-x that works down to -25F so it is definitely not frozen. It sprays just fine when engine starts. I am going to be adding another gallon to see if it finally resets the low washer warning.. Also I think I need to replace these wipers, why would they switch to old style wipers, I don't understand, they don't have enough pressure I get streaks on passenger side, but Rain-X does a much better job than BMW fluid with half the amount of fluid washing the salt away.
