when I use my windscreen washers I get an awful smell in the car. I have tried different fluids including plain water, but the same smell still remains. Has anybody else experienced this, or any suggestions as to how to get rid of this awful smell.

thanks

I had this after using a different screenwash from my usual. I think the two somehow reacted and it smelt terrible. I had a long summer journey to go on, so I filled the reservoir up with plain tap water and used it a lot until it ran out (for some reason, the back squirter stops working before the front...) and then refilled it a couple of times at service stations. It stopped smelling after the second tank-ful.

 

Now I only use one sort of screenwash and I haven't had the problem again.
