Draining windscreen washer reservoir, how?
I got some wrong liquid in the windscreen washer reservoir and tried to drain it by siphoning with a flexible tube.
No luck, as there are too many kinks from filler to reservoir. Is there a draining plug or another trick, beyond just emptying it with the electric screen washer pump? BTW, what is the capacity of the reservoir? |

I did this to my Acura, find the motor and remove it. Usually twists off. I ended up needing a new motor when my mishap happened. Acura part was about $30 so I can assume the BMW one is $120 haha

You'll need to drain it or remove the fill hose part and then siphon it out.

The tank is sitting behind the passenger side fender.
You may want to try take a peek from the fender liner.
