What is the 'service hole cover' referred to in the fact sheets about coolant replacement?

Haven't been out to check, but is there not a flappy bit of plastic under the duct, above the radiators?

Hi TerryG,

I would imagine the service hole cover would be the engine cover (the seats etc)

Cheers.

I wondered if that was what it referred to.

Isn't the service hole cover that metal plate under the carpet, behind the drivers seat that hides the fuel sender unit?

The name of the game is a "coolant change". ;) [-X

• remove air duct
open service hole cover

• remove reservoir tank cap
• loosen radiator drain plug
• drain coolant

Then later...

Most likely, it means the passenger seat.
