    Opps, I should have made my post more clear, the jets are not blocked now, but as the cold weather is hear, I do a lot of motorway driving, how do I stop the water in the bottle freezing, and prevent the windscreen from becoming smeared?
    Again I can only comment on my own stuff, but our genuine s/w has antifreeze built in and will work fine up to -17c

    Screen wash has some anti-freeze built in, but anti-freeze intended for engines will damage your paintwork.
