Hey All,

I still don't have my manual yet, but was looking under the hood of my VX and saw a large clear plastic container on the far right side (driver) of the engine, halfway towards the back. It's filled with blue liquid and it's nearly at the MIN level. Not sure what it is but thought it might be important. At first, I thought it was wiper fluid, but that's on the other side of the engine.

If it's round and near the brake booster it's the power steering resevoir. But if it's squarish and against the fender it's your coolant resevoir. That's what I'm guessing by the blue fuid since power steering is usually dark red and the color is hard to discern in the round resevoir.

Yeah, it's squarish and right next to the fender, so it's probably the coolant reservoir. Thanks. I didn't want to start dumping liquids in there 'til I was sure as to what it is.
