Can I use any windshield washer fluid I want for my car, or do I have to match it to whatever remains in the resevoir?

      Noooo don’t use water unless you’re in a climate that NEVER freezes. I drove my grandpa’s car to Utah from Seattle and used the wiper fluid as I was coming down snoqualmie pass and froze the whole windshield because he had put water in and I almost died. DO NOT use water unless you’re 100% sure your car will never be in freezing temperatures.

      And to answer the main question, you should be good to use any wiper fluid.

        Citation required, only because it’s an authoritative statement in a forum dedicated to asking for help and understanding.

        Plus it’s the dad thing to over explain how it causes legionnaires disease.
