Thread: HELP! Can't Find Power Steering Fluid Reservoir

Well, my baby has started making those odd groaning sounds when I turn my wheel. I usually associate that noise with power steering problems, so I go to check my fluid level, but can't find the damn reservoir opening. So I check my owner's manual and it tells me the reservoir is located behind the left side of the engine as I face the front of the car. So I grab my flashlight and start looking. And looking....and looking some more. I must have looked for 10 or 15 minutes with no luck! Am I missing something here?

I have an '07 basic model GP and can't believe this car does not have a power steering fluid reservoir. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I will really appreciate it. Thanks.........

Look for the pulley under the alternator, it will give you a good idea of where it is.

Thanks very much for your help. I'm going to give it a shot first thing tomorrow before I get rolling.
