Wiper fluid container question...

ok just a quick question...

I'm running out of wiper fluid, which is the best brand to buy?
just joking... ;-) hehe

Uhm When i refill my container for my wiper fluid, eventually it gets pretty full and you can see the fluid going up to the top of the neck of the container. So i stop when it gets to the top. NOW... i watch it as it starts draining... i'm like huh? so i check the side of my car, and i see it leaking from the bottom of my car. Question is:
Is there a drain out valve or something? I know it sounds stupid... but I hadn't filled my car with wiper fluid since i bought it last september... I filled it up in december, and noticed the problem, but didn't pay full attention to it... Now i'm curious.

I'm thinking that when i had gotten into my accident, the people who fixed my whole front bumper area, didn't bother to check if that container might have become cracked or something?

Which could be a reason why my car makes a weird sound between 120-160kms's?

anywho just a quick check. I'm sure the answer will be that you can fill it up to the top of the neck. But i just want to be sure.

Thanks

There's no drain as far as I remember... if you have the level indicator, maybe that is loose...

Either way... remove the passenger wheelwell plastic and take a look at it.
