Windshield washer reservoir..

Stupid question but would there be a problem driving WITHOUT the washer resevoir tank? Did the IPL swap and I'm planning of adding fogs for now and washer tank later....

Also, best place to buy the new reservoir? Thanks!

The dashboard will show a solid yellow warning (!) light telling you that the windshield fluid low since the flow sensor does not detect any fluid. That's all.

I don't have a windshield washer reservoir because there was no room left by turbo piping. No warning light either.

There's currently a leak in my washer fluid reservoir. And I've been running without fluid. I've never seen the low fluid light come on

The tech told me the sensor only detects when fluid is low and not when the tank is empty

Soo... if it goes from low to empty quickly then there would be no way for it to know?
