    A friend was using my beloved 2001 Prius(her car was in the shop), and hit black ice on a bridge. With 120,000 miles on it, original battery, mostly rust free, and still making40 Mpg, I'm hoping to fix it. But for the life of me, I can't figure out what this white reservoir/tank is! Can anyone help me? This is the passenger side, underneath the engine coolant reservoir. Thank you in advance!

    2001? I think the windshield washer bottle is on the other side.

    Therefore, put me down for the Helmholtz resonator for the engine intake.

    Thank you! I’m guessing it isn’t a major need to repair that portion?
