Are the jets heated on Ravs?

no -- you'd use special anti frozing liquified concentrate.

not that I know of unless the recent models have that...with the temp plunging to -12 here, its not going to matter much when concentrate screenwash freezes at -15! Another use for 100 proof whisky??? Aye right, but not in the tank!!

Halfords have some , as below:

i used to live in Prague where there was plenty of sow and freezing temperatue, always found giving the window washer a quick blast when I got home brought the antifreeze and water mixture up to the tips of the jets, ergo not frozen jets,

There are tons of decent screenwashs just makes sure that they are for winter and that the mix is right!

Safe driving in that cold weather!

Been using the halfrauds stuff (In grey'sh container) almost alumnus green the liquid is in colour :huh: but use it neat in the washer reservoir, and have not had then freeze at all this week...and it was -6 this morning....

Also why do some people think it's clever and safe to only clear a little bit of ice off the front screen then drive the car and wait until the heater does the rest DOH !!!!!! :angry:

Just plain !Removed! stupidity................
