Wiper Fluid Smell

[SigOris]

Preparing for a road trip for Thanksgiving and checked my fluids.

Noticed the wiper fluid didn’t have any gas or oil odors.

Is this normal?

TGD was OP tested and is fine.

Not normal, you need to add peppermint oil to prevent mice from drinking it.

Checked mine, smells like cranberry. Yours is broken or needs it's clock reset.

Did you smell TGD? Was it normal?

It’s time to switch from Pumpkin Spice to Gingerbread.

As long as the damper works you're good to go! That's the most important on your checklist. ?

I tried to deep fry the turkey in mine.
It did not work out.
John, hope you figure it out, that really sucks!

John, It just dawned on me. Make sure you check your blinker fluid.

That could've been a disaster!

After a year and a half my low washer fluid light came on yesterday. In PA it rains a lot so you don’t use your washers much. The winter deicing fluid has a smell but I’ve never noticed any odor with the regular blue stuff.

As long as there are no critters in the fluid, you are golden.

Mine actually does smell like fuel... Slightly perplexed on that.

Getting ready for a 500 mile trip Friday and checked my oil. It stinks like gas at 2k miles. Sounds normal after reading posts here. Never had that happen to another vehicle I owned. Never owned a turbo engine before either.

I just refill mine when I need to pee.

Waste not, want not.

I taught Bear Grylls a thing or two.

Wishing you a safe trip, Ed.
