Clutch Reservoir Location on a Toyota Hiace
The clutch fluid reservoir on a Toyota Hiace is located on the right-hand side of the dashboard, near the brake reservoir. The brake and clutch reservoirs are incorporated together, so they share the same reservoir.
Please note that it’s important to check the clutch fluid level regularly and ensure that it is sufficient. If the clutch fluid level is low, it may indicate a leak or other issues with the clutch system.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
