Windshield Fluid Container Leaking - Possibly O-ring S70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be Kenny on  Tue May 7 08:07 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Hi,

I've a 1998 Volvo S70 GLE. This problem started a few weeks ago. Everytime I filled up with windshield fluid, it would start to leak as I approached the
"Full" mark.

I talked to my service manager @ my dealership this morning, and he said that it could due to a O-ring on the windshield washer fluid container. The part itself, he said, is cheap ( a few bucks ), but I'm looking at $40-$50 Cdn for the labor.

Has anyone of you 1998 S70 owners had this problem ? ... If so, what is the cause ? ... If it is the O-ring, how easy is it to change myself ?

TIA,

--
