Is the coolant reservoir due for replacement? Let's see how to remove the reservoir from the Renault Clio. Lift the front bonnet of the car, locate the reservoir to be removed. Empty the reservoir of the existing liquid (disconnect the lower hose from the reservoir), using a socket or screwdriver, unscrew the securing bolts, and disconnect the circulation hoses from the reservoir.

Install a new reservoir with the associated hoses and bolts. After securing all the hoses, top up the new coolant in the cooling system.

Start the vehicle for a general functionality check.
