The presented reservoir is a part intended for Volkswagen vehicles, which translates to maintaining factory mounting points and compatibility with original accessories. The reservoir's design has been developed for the specific Tiguan 5N body, ensuring that:

• it fits factory brackets and supports in the body compartment,
• it allows for the installation of standard pumps and fluid level sensors (if present in the specific configuration),
• it maintains the manufacturer's intended geometry for routing washer hoses.

Such a fit minimizes the need for modifications and allows for consistency with other components of the washer system.

Component Condition and Installation Aspects

The product is offered in a used condition, meaning it comes from a dismantled vehicle but retains the functionality required for further operation. This type of part is a good choice for users looking for an economical solution that is also compliant with the factory Volkswagen specification.

When installing, it is worth paying attention to:

• checking for leaks after installation in the vehicle,
• proper seating of the washer pump and seals,
• correct connection of hoses and electrical connectors for accessories.

Thanks to the preservation of the reservoir's original geometry, the replacement process is similar to the service procedure specified by the manufacturer, making the work easier for both workshops and users who service their vehicles themselves.
