Exclamation Removing the Coolant Reservoir
I am unable to remove the coolant reservoir on my 1999 RX300. There are no bolts or nuts to remove, and it will not slide out. There must be something somewhere to release it from the side of the engine compartment, but I cannot find it. Help, anyone? Thank you.

Yes, I've been there before. You just need to pull up like hell, and it will come off

make sure you detach all the hoses first and it should slide up and out with a bit of force
