Can someone tell me where to fill the windshield wiper resevoir on my 850 turbo?

I believe it's in the uncovered spout in the left front (if facing car) of the engine bay but I'm not sure enough that I want to pour liquid down that opening.

Help please. And feel free to make fun - I got it coming.

Yeah....

I'm the 3rd owner.

Know where I could get one? I'm not real cool with the idea of it being open to whatever debris might exist under the hood.

P/N is 6800093

you could probably order one from www.fcpgroton.com but you'll have to do a part request.

It's the broken blue thing under the hood.

All 4 Volvos that I've had have had that thing break when you try to open it. Basically every Volvo I've ever seen over a couple years old has it broken too. The funny thing is, as I recall, the 240s used the same stupid blue cap, made of the most brittle thing they could find.

go to the dealer and it couldn't possibly be more than $10...i mean, with FCP, you'll pay like $6 plus shipping, so just go to the dealer and get it!

Look in the fridge - there has to be a jar of something that is old and has a cover that will snap on!
