Hello guys and girls,

I haven't posted in a while but low my windshield wiper fluid light came on the other day. Let me explain, basically all I did was the fluid was low so I filled it with official Porsche wiper mixture aqua in color from Suncoast Porsche in a funny black bottle dispenser. I may have over filled it, now the light is on. How do I turn this off? what is the correct 50/50 mixture of this stuff.

 

Hmmm, I wouldn't have thought over filling or mixture would trigger the light?
Did it run dry? maybe there's some air in the system?

 

You may have also put washer fluid were the coolant goes.

 

Or coolant (engine bay) where the wiper fluid goes (front trunk)?

 

In the brake fluid? Up front

 

Wait for it....

wait for it...

the head slap is coming any moment now I can sense it!

 

I can see it now

OTOH, one of the hoses from the tank to the nozzles may have come loose and drained the fluid. simple fix behind the wheel well panel driver side ( 2, 10mm plastic nuts and a clip to access that area).

 

The blinker fluid may also be low. That is an extra special order from Porsche dealership often sold out...

 

What do you mean blinker fluid? No I didn't dump washer liquid in the coolant tank novice mistake.
Ok stupid question but I am going to ask wear is the brake fluid tank on a 2001 996 auto?

 

Brake reservoir is in the frunk,near the cowling on the drivers side.






Blinker Fluid.

 

doh!
