I noticed while reading my users manual that the Canadian TL-S has an idiot light for the windshield washer fluid. What's that all about? Why would they not include that in all cars? I hear that the Canadian cars also have daytime running lights (which is probably required), but is the washer fluid light required?

Why wouldn't they just make one car for all of North America?

Canadians also get CL-S rims (wider than TL-S) but no Navi as an option.

 

Yes, day time running lights are required for Canadian viechles, but warning light for low windshield fluid...no. I think the reason for Canadian TL's to have them is because driving without windshield fluid in winter is very very unsafe. There are many car pile-ups in canada caused by dirty windshield.

That is just my thoughts....anyone else?

 

I think AcuraJoe is right. I've noticed that several Canadian models have larger washer fluid reservoirs than their American counterparts as well.

What about us Northerner's. We'd like bigger washer fluid levels too!

The colour choices available are also different. Canada gets Naples Gold and a different blue. Of course the gauges/odo also have to be different (km/hr vs. mph).

I'm not sure why they don't make the US and Canadian cars as similar as possible. You'd think it would be cheaper.

 

What is ur beef anyways, do u like or not like the washer fluid light? I mean if u don't like it, than good it is not on ur car. I just don't get it, u just sound so incorrect the way u said it. Why are u so pumped up about it? I mean, u were very nice to put up the first pix with 02 kit. But now I am starting to see u maybe u are just another spoiled no live person. Nice pix sig there with a MR2 and Type-S, loaded eh? Have a life!! Spend time to read something else for now ok, not the Canadian section on ur manual anymore ok?

 

Eh?
