I checked with BMW and sure enough, it's lifetime fill. So honestly I am not going to change the blinker fluid at all. I'm sure it will be fine. However I did pick up an awesome set of cross drilled brake lines that I plan on installing this weekend. Can't wait!

Bleeding the system with these lines is super easy.

Yeah that is one advantage of using them from what I understand. What is amazing though is that the BMW brake system seems to use an enormous quantity of brake fluid (some people have reported using a drum of it (42 gallons). The manual clearly has a typo when they claim you can get away with only a liter. Nice goof BMW!

I just need someone's expertise on this... Correct me if i'm wrong, but the BMW windshield wiper fluid tank is the warmed but the actual lines that spray are not? So in the case, in cold weather, the lines still can freeze? Thanks..
Early this morning I woke up to about 12f degrees. My headlight and rear window washers worked fine, but my windshield one did not work.

The windshield ones always freeze on me too. I don't think any of them are warmed. At least not in my 03 3.0. The Merc is heated and pressurized though. It did cost me $108 to replace a $.97 piece on that system though!

My spray nozzles are heated, nothing else is. Engine heat under the hood would help keep everything flowing. I use -45C windshield washer fluid myself.

I use the RainX brand one with antifreeze year round because the extra alcohol content keeps the glass sqeuaky clean and does wonders for getting bird poop and bug splatter off every so often.
