Hello friends.
Today, when i was filling my washer fluid tank, I accidentaly dropped small plastic ring that was on the washer fuild bottle (that ring that secures the cap and you have to "break" it when 1st opening the cap).

I it small ring from PVC, around 8mm in diameter.

Can you please tell me if that is any problem? I dont know how the suction system from the washer tank looks, so I am only worried if it couldnt accidentaly plug or harm anything inside the reservoir.

What you think? Should I take it to servis to suck it all out, or just leave it?

Thank you very much :) And - be carefull when filling with washer fluid, I really didnt expect this happens :)

Get a similar ring and see if it floats. I'll bet it does. If so, unless you run the tank dry, I think you will be fine.

It should float just put more fluid in.

There is a small screen/filter at the bottom of the bottle before it goes to the pump, so it should be fine.
