#1 Series 3 power steering reservoir.

Where do I find the power steering fluid reservoir on my Series 3 E-type? Does it have a dipstick to check the fluid level? A photo would help! Many thanks.

Open the bonnet and look at the fan belts..they go around the crank. Waterpump. Alternator air con and power steering pump which has the reservoir attached....also look at the knowledge base section....parts catalogues and service manual all the info there you could possibly need...Steve

Left hand side of engine bay, inboard of the engine frame. It has a built in dipstick, slightly awkward access but not too bad.
Visible in both photos, the reservoir is the cylindrical shape unit with the filler at the top of the neck protruding from it.
