I love SummerFit washer fluid!
Just in case no one has used it before grab some Benz Summer Fit washer fluid concentrate. I picked up 20 bottles for $20 on eBay. The stuff cleans my windshield like using soap. Thanks to my neighbor who is an MB master technician for the heads up. I won't buy anything else - I even put it in my Cadillac I love it so much.

Apologies for the lack of pertinent info....
Summer fit is a concentrate that is Mercedes branded- it doesn't leave streaks and cleans less like fluid and more like soap. You can actually see the bubbles, albeit a few, on the windshield. It doesn't leave a soapy residue however - IMO it provides a much better cleaning cycle. Simply mix one tube with water and it does the trick. In the winter I don't feel comfortable mixing with just water - so I add a little cheap blue stuff that prevents freezing but you still get the deep clean effect from the concentrate.

Btw, I recently found out there is a winter version (to my earlier comment about reluctance to use in freezing temps where I mix with the blue stuff) called winterfit.

LOL - I always used "whatever" in the reservoir until I tried this. It is unbelievable. I don't know how much it is at the dealer but 12 on eBay is around $20 and worth every penny considering a gallon of the blue stuff is $2 for a reaervoir full.

Alas, no. "Frost" is my 14 year old dog 
. I found winterfit on eBay from a guy in Denmark when I was buying the summerfit fluid .. Seems like it is only commonly sold in Europe - but it has a Benz part number so I am going to try and buy some this fall.
