Does anyone have instructions or a video on how to replace the windshield washer reservoir on a 2013 RX 350? I have searched through the forums, Google, youtube and haven't had any luck so far.

 

Although it is often possible to replace a washer pump on most vehicles made by Toyota by peeling back a fender liner and going through a wheel well, I doubt that a washer fluid tank could be removed without removing the front bumper cover.

This YouTube video on replacing the washer fluid container on a Corolla pretty much sums it up:


Removing a front bumper cover is pretty easy. I think it took me maybe 15 minutes to do it on our Sienna van a couple of months ago although I have lots of experience ripping cars apart and putting them back together. Here is what our Sienna looks w/o the bumper cover. After removing the bumper cover there were only 2 or 3 bolts/nuts holding the washer fluid container in place.

 

Just curious - why do you need to replace your washer fluid bottle? Has it frozen over and cracked?

 

I would suggest that you try to get the original from salvage yard.

Your problem can be different, but on my first gen I had replace the rubber seal as it was leaking. I too along with tempestv8 would like to know more to possibly offer additional advice.
