Meaning of Windshield Washer Fluid Cap Text?

[TheBestCow]

I know this is likely an ignorant question but didn’t find anything when searching here or elsewhere.

What does e11 on the washer fluid cap (with a bunch of numbers after... 001102, 001103, 001104, 001107) mean?

I thought it might be a Toyota spec set of washer fluid, but not pulling any up.

Am I good to throw some RainX washer fluid in there?

 

[Trunk Monkey]

Yes, any fluid. No clue on the markings, guess manufacturing coding.

On the E-11.

Reminded me of codes on MSDS so I took a look. Example is that methyl alcohol (antifreeze agent in the fluid) in many is 5-15% and labelled LEL.

It could be noting a recommended alcohol content to prevent freezing at lower operating temps.

Is it a reach putting all of that together?

Absolutely.

 

[TheBestCow]

RainX -25° it is then. Thanks.

Crap, mine only goes up to 4. Should I upgrade?

Guessing- the e11 indicates a European rule/code/regulation (cec), and the numbers are approved washer fluid types- for environmental or toxic material conformity, like the CAS system.

The LEL for methanol is likely referring to the lower explosive limit, or the minimum airborne concentration at which it will ignite.

So, what is the E11 Mark?
"The E11 Mark is the British specific Mark that covers equipment/vehicles supplied to the automotive industry. This includes commercial vehicles, construction machinery and general vehicle use and basically means the unit has been approved by ECU compliance and quality control regulations.


The E Mark number differs dependent on which country the product inspection had taken place in. So, Germany for example uses the E1 Mark while Turkey uses the E37 Mark."

Makes sense!

I live in Britain and I can tell you what those numbers are for, e11 is for Plutonium and the other longer numbers are for the grade of Plutomium you want to use, depending how far you want to go back to the future, Toyota did away with the need for Plutonium in the 200 series's fusion drive in favour of the slightly more enviro-mentally friendly 'garbage' also stating, garbage will give you better light-year distance.

Yes, I'm in the UK bored club to.

The 11th element is sodium (Na). Obvious clue from Mr. T to not bother looking for turbos or a supercharger.
