Where is my power steering fill???

For a 2000 GP w/3800. I must be blind, because I can't find it. I've looked at the engine for like 15 minutes and have no idea where it's at. Owners manual gives a location of behind the alternator; there is nothing there.

Heh look on the belt-end of the engine, to the rear, REAL LOW....it's behind the engine.

Nice one, GM.

Keep looking, it's way down there. This is the worst location on a GM vehicle that I've ever seen for checking the ps fluid. Often, on those vehicles, there are two red hot heater hoses right where you have to stick your arm to check the ps level. Very dumb.

Found it, thanks! What an asinine place for it!

Lets be thankful GM didn't make the PS a Sealed Unit.

I rented a 04 Regal 3800 two weeks ago, same location as yours - I didn't even bother trying to check the PS level.

You can't say asinine without ASS....typical GM.

Sounds like my 4T40E in my 02 Sunfire...no dipstick.
