I bought a '98 Jetta this year and the Power Steering Reservoir needs to be replaced because the battery drips on it and melts the plastic. Pretty good design, huh! This will be the 3rd one. My father owned the car before me and this is one of the reasons he sold it. I think the gas models have battery blankets and maybee a differant reservoir since this one looks like it was shaped to fit next to the Intercooler Pipe.

Do any A3 owners have a battery blanket?
Have any of you had to replace the reservoir?

If VW hasn't changed the design I'm going to try to fit the round white plastic style from an A2 or Passat in.
