Default Washer Fluid Res.

Has anyone actually removed there's? I wanted to get it changed over to winter fluid before i parked it, so i go looking in my manual,

(7) Grasp the bottom of the washer reservoir
firmly with both hands and pull the unit sharply
upward to disengage the locking feature on the
washer reservoir from the depression in the radiator
shroud.

Like HECK! I was standing on the bumper and was PULLing with both hands, and im not tiny by anymeans, 350lbs, 6'3.. and there was no way it was " disengaging" from its clasps.

So ya, just seeing, am i a *****, or.. am i doing something wrong.

Just dump some Isopropyl Alcohol in there. That will stop it from freezing. If you don't want to mess with that, just pull the feed line off inder the hood and run the pump to discharge into a bucket.
