Yes, I searched and searched and couldn't find anything, so here goes.
My steering rack has started grinding whenever I turn the wheel. Numerous people have said I need to top off the fluid, but should flush the system just to be safe. I know where the power steering fluid filler cap is, but I have no idea how to get to the drain plug for the reservoir (7afe). Can anybody help? |

Lol don't ask why
 I'm pretty sure it's not leaking. I'll try to flush it and see if it helps. |
