At £5/L and dilute 1:2 for protection to -10C it'd take almost 2L of that screenwash to make the 5L I need to refill the S204 screenwash bottle once the warning light comes on!You don’t need to use MB branded screenwash in the same way you don’t need to use MB branded wiper blades, engine oil, brake fluid etc… the advantage of using MB branded products is you can be sure they are good quality and the correct spec for the car; as consumables are so reasonably priced now I don’t see you saving much going for other brands of screenwash.

Okay. Cheaper isn’t always better though! I really like the MB branded stuff and even at £10 for 2 bottles to dilute to fill up from empty it’s not too bad ImoAt £5/L and dilute 1:2 for protection to -10C it'd take almost 2L of that screenwash to make the 5L I need to refill the S204 screenwash bottle once the warning light comes on!

£9 for 10L delivered, dilute 1:9 for summer use and less for winter.
That's an expensive way to buy water!I just use Halfords 5l Premix for just under £5. Its simpler to just top up and not worry about mixing. Plus I do quite like the smell
I use the Mercedes branded stuff too. I buy bottles of six at a time, and six Winterfit and six Summerfit covers all of our cars for at least year. Not cheap but it works well.Okay.

It works very well doesn’t it Rob, also doesn’t smell unusual like some of the other screenwashes available.I use the Mercedes branded stuff too. I buy bottles of six at a time, and six Winterfit and six Summerfit covers all of our cars for at least year. Not cheap but it works well.
Are you trying to rapidly increase your post count with pointless replies?wow so cheap
Maybe the quality of materials available in the UK are different but I have owned 13 MB cars in the last 33 yr and we get horrible roads in the winters and washer fluid is as critical as fuel and oil to keep topped up. I mix and match all brands and have never lost a washer jet either on the windshield or headlamp jets.You don’t need to use MB branded screenwash in the same way you don’t need to use MB branded wiper blades, engine oil, brake fluid etc… the advantage of using MB branded products is you can be sure they are good quality and the correct spec for the car; as consumables are so reasonably priced now I don’t see you saving much going for other brands of screenwash.

They do need to be cleaned now and thenI wasn't looking for it but just saw this recent thread.
Algae in the washer bottle | Parts, Maintenance & Servicing
Advice please. Mrs jdrrco's lovely W202 has only done 45k miles in 22 years. Most things on it are like new, but the windscreen washers lack enthusiasm. Topping up the washer bottle yesterday, I saw a fair bit of gunky algae which has, no doubt, made its way up the tubes and is contributing...forums.mbclub.co.uk
If my Mrs. sees this, I've been rumbledPut it in the shopping trolly and it comes out of grocery budget and not car spending.
