Let me start out by saying I know this is a silly complaint and minor, but also that's because I have found very few things to complain about on the CX-5 which is a good thing. The other complaint was the poor trunk light which was useless, but fixed by LED replacement.
Ok so I used my wiper spray this morning to help clean my windows and got a wiper fluid low indicator. When I got home today I decided to fill it up. Now I don't really use anything fancy unless maybe I am going up to the snow, so usually just water. Well I pop the top and try to find the reservoir to see the fill line, but don't see one. Oh well, I put a bottle in, than another, than another. It doesn't seem to be getting even close to full. I finally pull the lid off and see the dip stick attached to it to see the water level. Well it's a clear liquid, going down a wet tube, so even after drying it off, dipping it, and lifting it back out, it was hard to see the actual level. Couple more bottles of water (i am refilling the bottle, not actually using bottled water), I check again. I figure the small boxes are suppose to be filled with water and see I am still a few off. Wel I get up to 8 bottles and there is still 2 empty squares. I put in the 9th and all of a sudden the water stops pouring and realize i way over filled it.
Maybe I should be using actual wiperfluid to help determine the levels and get a reading, but usually water has worked for me along with clean blades. Just curious if this has been a small annoyance for anyone else.
