General Unidentified fluid reservoir

[heraldsteve]

My wife's 2009 500 multijet has a fluid reservoir next to the brake reservoir but it is not shown in the handbook. Can anyone tell me what it is? It's the one on the right in the photograph.

Not seen that before, is it left hand drive?

Clutch fluid reservoir for the hydraulic clutch system

No, it's RH drive bought brand new in UK in 2009. I'm pretty mechanically savvy but I'm puzzled by this one. It thought it might be power steering fluid but then I read the steering is electrical. Even more puzzling that it's not in the handbook.

Clutch? I assumed the clutch was either cable operated or shared with the brake reservoir. Strange it's not listed in the handbook.

LHD vehicles I think use a cable clutch, but RHD have hydraulic, hence the extra reservoir. Same as Panda.

As simple as that - LOL

Thank you all for your help ?
