My excuse for this is that I'd just driven 800 miles in two days to see my dad in hospital so be gentle with the pi$$ taking.

Topped up the girlfriends car with oil as normal, then thought I'd do my car (not the Vette, it's a Saxo). Without checking I added a splash of screenwash before realising my numpty error.

Question - will this cause serious problems? It's due an oil change which I'll do sooner rather than later but until then should I be afraid?

Id depends on what "splash" means.. If it was 5ml then fine, if you mean 500ml, then change immediately smile
It was about 50ml I guess. It was as much as it took for me to realise it wasn't oil. Literally, tip bottle, realise, stop. Going through the funnel it was less than a seconds worth.

Will get it changed ASAP though. Cheers.
