Windshield Washer Reservoir

I am seeking instructions on removing the leaking reservoir tank on my 2010 HHR. I can find no specific instructions anywhere. They all deal with pump or other GM vehicles. I would be grateful if anyone could provide me with the simple instructions on how to remove this part,

Simple. Unscrew the bolts. Disconnect the hoses and wiring. Remove washer bottle.
Also may have to move/remove the hood strut on that side. Can’t recall.

No strut removal required.
Although removal of air filter assembly helped.
The last time mine leaked the issue was the pump was cracked.

I didn’t find anything about our Chevrolet,
but here’s how the issue is resolved on a Saberben - this will give a general idea of the procedure, you’ll find the attachment points yourself

The thing to know is that after you remove the fasteners and tubes, the bottom of the bottle is a tail fit into a slot. Pull up to remove.

I don’t remember any thing like that, are you thinking about the radiator fluid reservoir, Donbrew?
