My 3 is not a daily driver and in Arizona, I have no reason to ever subject my car to rain, so I drained the washer fluid reservoir and holy cow, got at least a gallon out of there! At approx. 8lbs per gallon (for water), thats a pretty nice weight reduction.
Only problem was the low fluid light then came on. So, I did some expirementing and if you put back 32 ounces, the light goes away. So there you go. Just thought I would share since I had not previously seen any posts documenting how much fluid you have to retain to avoid a dash light!
Happy new year!

Correction....the fluid I removed was 7lbs 1 ounce! Every little bit helps!! Also removed the rear speakers and reinstalled the empty grills. After experimenting with fading all the sound to the front speakers, I realized the rears did not add much to the already pathetic sound quality so out they came! Only about ten ounces each, but it all adds up!
