I have 36G but 2002. Unless they have moved the reservoir, it is behind your living room slide. Open the second compartment door under the slide and look behind a vinyl flap just aft of the compartment opening.

Also, make sure your jacks are up when you check fluid levels. Jacks down will lower the fluid level. Some folks say slide position doesn't matter (since the fluid recirculates to the reservoir as the slide rams operate) but I always check fluid level with slides in and jacks up.

rojodoss, The hydralic res. on our 2004 36G Journey is just ahead of the steps under the passenger side of the coach. You should have all jacks stored and all slides in to check the fluid. It is a hard place to reach from under the coach so make sure that you only have to do it whenever you think it is necessary. Good Luck, Indiana Journey

We have a 2004 journey ...

If you look underneath the lip of your entry steps you will find a nut below the top two steps ... after removing the nut each step swings up ... the tank, filler cap, and the controls are visible and easily accessible ...

Thanks I found it right where it should be atop of the reservior-under all the wires in the world. and yes 04 is under the entry step.
