A6 Windscreen Water Tank Problem

<_<
Ciao,

I have an Audi A6 Avant 2.5 TDI of 1999, I am experiencing problems with the tank of the windscreen system. Water does not come out at back screen and at front lights, but only from front windscreen. Moreover I noticed that when I fill up the water tank, water comes out from the bottom of the engine, I still was not able to verify if there is a leakeage in the tank or if a pipe came out.
Would anyone of you let me know how I can dismantle the water tank? Is it possible to get it from the top of the engine of shall I access from the bottom of the car?

thanks for your help

Andrea

I have a leak on my 1998 A6 2.8, and you get to the reservoir by removing the wheel and taking off the wheel well liner (really not too bad a job). My problem seems to be at the washer at the bottom of the tank and I'm in the process of replacing it. Here's a link to the site where I found the seal.
