My car seems to be fitted with a supplementary Washer Fluid Reservoir (filler cap on inside of offside wing) however there is no mention of how this works in the manual (yes I've read it) also nothing in the forum search (yes I've searched). I've had the washer level alert come on but does that mean both are empty? The manual says to fill the main reservoir up first but nothing else. I just assume you fill the supplemental reservoir up as well. Anybody got and insights into this and how it all works?. Geoff

I've got the dual washer bottles and just keep them both topped up. No issues or messages so far

Me too... a £45 option when new! 🤑 just fill um both up Geoff 👍

I hadn't realised they were connected.

In my mini there is one for the main water and one on the other side that just does the headlights - I had assumed the FFRR was the same

I just keep them both topped up

I must say, during a long trip to Greece, I got the message too, but when I topped them, the front one was empty, but the side one was not... I would say it still was 1/2 or 1/3 full... 2019 Vogue P400e

Hmm, am I missing something or am I having a blonde moment?

I have the extra capacity on my 2020 SVA but only have the filler in the drivers side wing top under the bonnet.

Just spent 10 mins looking for an alternate filler and taken off a cover on the front drivers side where there is a washer sign with an arrow to the left as you face the vehicle but nothing under there?

Help chaps please  "UNDERSTEER" ----is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" ------is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" ----is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" -----------is how far you take the fence with you.

Post up a picture of the engine bay sir 👍

I don’t know if I have that......

Must go and check. It’s got me all excited now, as I’m forever running out of screen wash in the other cars but haven’t driven far enough in the fatty to have run out yet. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

So when I checked mine having used the jets quite a lot recently to remove copious flying ant remains, the larger 'additional water bottle' needed about 0.5 litres, but the other one was full to the brim. So I assume is uses the additional one first....unless someone knows differently  SDV8 AB MY 2019
