The BMW 2 Series Active Tourer was never fully adopted by BMW fans. With its front engine front-wheel drive setup it strayed from BMW's recipe for success and was universally shunned by purists. BMW did however sell a few here in South Africa and if you happen to own one now you will want to keep it in its best operating condition. This can be done by completing small maintenance tasks such as wiper blade replacement and washer reservoir refills

This washer system will need to be refilled on a regular basis and below we show you how it's done.

You will need:

Windshield washer fluid

Let's get it filled

1. Open the bonnet

2. Locate the washer reservoir filling neck

3. Fill with washer fluid

4. Close cap securely and test the system
