The windshield washer tank as a methanol tank is probably one of the worst and most dangerous "products" ever designed for the N54. The methanol slushes and creates vapors which are easily ignited given the temperatures in the engine bay. It's just incredible that there are still people running this setup after so many reports of fires !

I'm waiting for the first report of somebody dying because of this. Imagine a car catching fire on a highway at high speed while racing another car, and all the smoke and fire blinding the driver which freakes out, causes a huge accident and dies.
