2nd Coolant Resevoir?
What is the purpose of the second coolant resevoir behind the passenger wheel well? 1987 300TD

You are probably referring to the reservoir for windshield washer fluid. It would spray on the BACK glass in this case. Is the liquid blue by chance? Not that this is a 100% dependable clue - but blue is very common for WW fluid.

No to both. This resevoir is located behind the front passenger wheel behind a panel. Right next to the Vacuum resevoir.
The SLS is behind the driver's headlight, the rear washer bottle is in the rear just under the antenna.

yup. the reservoir in the rear passenger wheel well, (under the jack / first aid kit) is for the rear wiper pump.

i would imagine he is reffering to the overflow tank behind the front passenger wheel are just infront of the passenger door area behind the plastic inner fender liner. it is an actual over flow tank, the main one is the reservoir and this one collects any expansion fluid.

If you have the metal one, you are lucky. If you have the plastic one....check it for cracks.

__________________ Yes, That's the one. What is its purpose. Does coolant stay in there to be sucked back up to the upper tank? Or does it have another, or no function?
