Question

I've had my car nearly 4 weeks now, it had an empty water spray tank when I bought it, so I filled it up.

Looking tonight, I see that its still full
The switch is set to auto, the spray works if I press the manual spray button so I know the water path is working.

Question is, when should it auto spray?, is it only in hot weather?, and when it does come on when on auto does it light the indicator on the dash, or is that just to tell you the bottle's empty!

Cheers

As far as I know, it is both temp regulated and also linked to throttle position, so unless opening the throttle quite wide, it wont "auto".

I would have thought the temps are way too cold at the moment for th auto spray to come on, even at max boost.

Mega,

well if you don't drive it - it won't use the water

Agrees with Adam (shock, horror!)

Cheers, does anyone know if the dash light comes on when the water spray is triggered?
