Washer reservoir
Hi, I'm wondering if our XF washer reservoir is the same as the SLK Mercedes. Wondering so I that I can buy one from our local Merc dealer, as we don't have a Chrysler dealer in our city. Mine is leaking, although I haven't had a look why yet. Thanks in advance. 😃

They can also crack around the area that supports the weight of them. There is a thread describing the problem and the solution. Go to the link in my signature, it is the second one down in the BODY section. |

Our's leaked at the pump seat area and later; at the lower front end, as I recall. I repaired the "bottle" leak using a hot glue gun, other attempts at gluing would not adhere to the plastic. Very careful heat application may work well in that case also. Frustrating but inexpensive repair. As 180 suggests, check the "list" for more info, good luck.

a) You can make your own by using a generic model as I did. I simply cut the mounting bracket off along with a bit of the side and affixed it to an old Porsche reservoir I had. It works like a charm. b) There are new and used ones available on Aussie ebay: washer reservoir Crossfire | eBay |
