Hi. Looked on wiki but can't find guide to checking reservoir . I filled up the fluid this morning but it came straight out under the van. I looked and could see the metal small tank wet and dripping fluid so guessing something's loose. Do I just u screw it all and have a look? Any one done it ?
Cheers

Re: Windscreen wash reservoir
It is VWs way of letting you know it is full - I would rather it overflowed there than into the footwell.
I am one of the lucky ones in that mine will overflow into the footwell.
