My 06 does not do this. It beeps once and then you get the red light on the dash. It doesn't beep every 2 minutes.

If you are that **** about it keep a bottle of your favorite window cleaner (Clear Vision II for me) in your trunk and clean your window before you go anywhere, thus saving the washer fluid for when you are actually driving and keeping your car cleaner.

I hate when I get a spot on my windshield shortly after I wash my baby. Nothing dirtys up a clean car more than windshield washer fluid that sprays all over the place! That's why I keep the glass cleaner in my trunk.

well, then for something constructive rather than rude, when the warning light goes off, just hold the washer fluid down and spray it all out, then when your car sways the fluid wont cover/uncover the sensor so it beeps again and again, if you just hold it down until its empty, you'll have a clean windshield, no beep, and next time u stop u know just to fill it to the top again

kind of a waste but, best i could think of

Yeah--after it beeps so loud and so rapidly that you'd think an air strike is coming.

Instead of making a trip to the dealer to have them disable the washer fluid alarm, why not go to Kmart and buy a $2 jug of washer fluid, and fill the reservoir?

My 06 does beep every minute or so. This happened on my drive home for Thanksgiving. If you're in the middle of nowhere this is pretty annoying when there is nowhere to buy fluid for miles and miles.

Weird. I am almost positive mine doesn't continue ringing. I would have noticed. Next time I will have to check.
