noob question... windshield fluid container leak..
As i was pouring windshield fluid, i noticed the fluid is all draining out to the ground. So I got into car and tried to use windshield fluid. The next thing I noticed was the windshield fluid was coming out more...
I'm thinking now that the windshield fluid container is leaking.. well obviously..
anyway do any of you have a tech guide of replacing the windshield fluid container?
I was searching in the tech forum but I couldn't find it.

im 99% sure you need to remove the wheel well liner
remove the driver's side wheel, you'll see about 8 torx screws to remove the wheel well liner. behind that you'll see bolts for the washer tank.
the white thing in the pic is the tank. the leak might not be the tank but the pump.

they're right, take off the wheel liner and plug the pump and base of that line back in tight.
i even sealed mine up with some gasket goop to make sure it wouldn't leak or come loose again, since it happened twice to me in two or three days.
