Power Steering Fluid: Specifications (page 2 of 2) – Saab 9-2X F4-2.5L (2006)

Power Steering Fluid: Testing and Inspection

POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL

NOTE:

-

Check at power steering fluid temperature 20 degree C (68 degree F); read the fluid level on the "COLD" side.

-

Check at power steering fluid temperature 80 degree C (176 degree F); read the fluid level on the "HOT" side.

-

Place the vehicle with engine "OFF" on a flat and level surface.

-

Check the fluid level using the scale on the outside of reservoir tank (A). If the level is below "MIN" (B), add fluid to bring it up to "MAX" (C).

NOTE:  If the fluid level is at MAX level or above, drain fluid to keep the level in specified range of indicator by using a syringe or the like.

Recommended fluid:
Dexron III

Fluid capacity:
0.7 litres (0.7 US qt, 0.6 Imp qt)

POWER STEERING FLUID LEAKS

-

Inspect the underside of oil pump and gearbox for power steering system, hoses, piping and their couplings for fluid leaks.

-

If fluid leaks are found, correct them by retightening their fitting bolts (or nuts) and/or replacing their parts.

NOTE:
-

Wipe the leakage fluid off after correcting fluid leaks, or a wrong diagnosis is taken later.

-

Also pay attention to clearances between hoses (or pipings) and other parts when inspecting fluid leaks.
