I'm unable to find reservoir for q7 2018 2.0T under the hood. My car has 50k plus miles thus far and I was thinking, I should look at the condition of hydraulic fluid but I'm unable to locate the reservoir. What I'm missing ? Can someone please help ?

My 2018 3.0 power steering is electric, not hydraulic. I don't think there is a difference between 2.0 and 3.0 for steering.

Audi stopped using hydraulic power steering since around 2009. Everything is now electro-mechanical. Most others brands are doing the same. This change is needed to implement most driver assistance features.

Thank you. Is there any maintaince tip for the electric sterring wheel system?
Did not find anywhere so not sure if this system need any maintaince at all !!

I believe the electric steering rack is a maintenance-free system that requires total replacement in the event of a failure. Usually it's the electric motor that wears out.
