Re: Engine Coolant Resvevoir: 1999 (T) - wheres mine??

Hi,
Just bought a Brava 80 SX 16V, 1999 (T) last week, 95K - £895quid. Excellent 2nd user car, me thinks.
Engine temp dial on dash has been showing more than central level mark, more nearer Hot, so time to top up coolant.

Problem:
Included manual shows engine coolant left handside of engine over window wiper cleaner res, mine doesn't have one though manual picture shows it there!
I do have a creamy white plastic resevoir on the right hand side of the rad, with a black screw top. It has min-max on, so it must be 'fillable'
Could this be it?
Help asap!

Cheers,

Re: Thanks Andy....

Yes, it's a damn goodrunner, I was surprised of it's power when I drove it from the dealer 35 miles way and bombed it down the M6. It does need a good general service me thinks (you kno, sparks, filter, oil etc) as I don't think it has been done, but the week I bought it, it had just passed it's MOT and me thinks its just been 'ran to ground' B4 someone upgraded their car.

Amazingly, the price shown in the car sales receipts kept shows 18 months B4 bought from a major car dealer was £5495, so to £895 was bit dubious, but me and me mate checked it out and was very surprised, me only thinks 'cheapo' because of the high mileage. So it goes to show, keep an eye out on autotrader and check these good drives out.
My first Fiat and I'll certainly be considering another one 24 months time.
Now to sort my MP3 head out.

Thanks for the coolant Res help.
