Washer reservoir - where is it located

martint · 11-16-2011, 11:38 AM

Hi all,

I have some very slight rubbing from both front 19inch alloys when turning and I need to push the wheel arch liner back slightly to create some room using a heat gun but I\'ve been told to watch out for the washer reservoir. Where exactly is the washer reservoir located under the front wheel arch liner. Any pics would be very helpful.

Thanks,

M

Open the hood, it's on the left hand side (passengers side). White plastic 'jug' with a black cap.

There are two 10mm bolts securing this. I'd suggest removing these bolts and lifting the reservoir away from the heat source.
