EPS is electronic power steering, motor powered, and is found behing the dash slightly above the fuse box, os held on with 2 torx screws, and is just a motor basically! the brain that controls it is fitted where ECUs are normally kept, behind the trim panel on the drivers footwell to the right, I am not sure, but I think some of the wires from it go to the electronic speedo u will have as well as loadsa other places!

just to clear this up, if you have an EPS light u have, as said, electronic power steering and no resivoir

if you have power steering but no EPS light then you have hydraulic power steering, and the resivoir is, funnily enough, located beside the N/S front wing
