Default Engine compartment plastic tanks...

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/69143/a4_engine-sm.jpg"></center><p>While cleaning up my engine compartment this past weekend, I noticed that the coolant expansion tank and brake fluid reservoirs are both white plastic whereas the ps fluid reservoir is yellow plastic.

Is this how they came from the factory or has the ps fluid tank yellowed over the past six years? I have never seen the engine compartment of a new A4 so I don't know, but if a replacement ps fluid reservoir will be yellow as well, then I guess there's no point in my replacing it since mine's otherwise in good condition.
