What is power steering fluid all about?

Power steering fluid flows through the power steering hydraulic system. The system is pressurised by the power steering pump and by way of valves, plungers, or pistons decreases the effort needed by the driver to turn the steering wheel. When the pump stops pumping, the pressure drops and the power steering system loses its hydraulic pressure.

As components in the steering system wear, metal particles will contaminate the fluid, which will cause seals in the system to leak and components to eventually fail. Checking the fluid level and changing the fluid at regular intervals recommended by the manufacturer is important for the life of the hoses, pistons, valves, seals, and the power steering pump itself.

Keep in mind:

  • Pouring in the wrong fluid or overfilling the system can cause expensive damage. The mechanic will need to consult the vehicle owner's or service manual.
  • If the fluid is low, the mechanic will check the hoses, fittings, and clamps for leaks.

How it's done:

  • Empty the power steering reservoir
  • Fill with the correct type and quantity of new fluid
  • Bleed the power steering system/clean up any residual fluid
  • Test operation of power steering
  • Check for any power steering leaks

Our recommendation:

Consider getting a power steering flush once every 3-4 years.

What are the common symptoms indicating you need to replace the power steering fluid?

  • Groaning noise from the power steering pump or steering gear
  • Difficulty in turning the steering wheel
  • Contaminated fluid (brown/black)

How important is this service?

Changing your power steering fluid at manufacturer recommended intervals, will ensure continued system performance and extended service life. It is a part of scheduled maintenance services and will sae you the trouble of major repairs down the road.

Scion xA L4-1.5L - Car is not starting - Fort Worth, Texas
He was only at my house for a total of 40 minutes and he was able to replace a very corroded battery and replace my alternator. He also took the time to answer my questions about future services I might need.

Scion xA L4-1.5L - Heater Blower Motor - Orlando, Florida
1st time using this service and......100% Fantastic service. I will never wait in a car lot lobby or drop my car off again. Not only was James on time, but he was early and had everything ready to start working. He checked my oil level, topped of all fluids and cleaned my battery connector absolutely free. You can tell that he takes pride in his work and likes to be as efficient as possible. He was polite, knowledgeable and courteous. He changed my air conditioning motor in less than an hour and made sure the air was nice and cold and the compressor running smoothly. He also checked the air level in my tires and cleaned and replaced everything shifted or moved during service. I highly recommend James to anyone thinking about using this service and have already booked my next service with him. The prices are AMAZING compared to a shop and the service exceeded expectations. Great job.
