Default Am I missing something


Drove the allroad this morning felt resistance in the steering so I figured I was low on power steering fluid.
i open the hood couldn’t find the power steering tank.
i googles some pictures and it showed a tank to the right of the coolant tank. I open my hood and I don’t see one. Any ideas?

Your car has electric power steering. If there is no fault on the dash, it's fine. You might want to get a scan tool and see if there are any faults on the steering system.

ooohhhh that explains it. I thought I was missing something because of the 2 mounting holes. Thank you for your help I’ll look into finding someone with a Vag-Com.
