Windshiels washer reservoir...
This may have come up before, but can not find anything on search.... My windshield washer fluid goes down every day, even though I do not use it, there is no visible leak, if I leave the car un-used for a week the level is mantained (full), if I drive it for a normal day drive (45 miles for me ) it goes down substantially.... does the engine heat may be evaporating it? anyone has had this issue...?

I drive my car every day (like 30+ miles a day) and I haven't had my windshield washer fluid changed in more than a month now. Something should be definitely wrong there with yours. I'd take it to the dealer straight.

+1 my F11 is 22 months old, 18.5k miles in and I reckon I've had to top the reservoir up once or maybe twice at most. Yours is NOT right. Get it looked at.

Up date, dealer replaced the reservoir cap, they claim that the washer fluid I use have shrunk the gasket on the cap and no longer seals and allowing the fluid to escape... I use turtle wax washer fluid with rain x, I have use it for years on my other 2 vehicles (MB) and never had an issue...
