How to Check Power Steering Fluid
Turn the key off, let the engine compartment cool down,
wipe the cap and the top of the reservoir clean, then
unscrew the cap and wipe the dipstick with a clean rag.
Replace the cap and completely tighten it. Then remove
the cap again and look at the fluid level on the dipstick.
The level should be at the C (3100 V6 engine) or COLD
(3800 V6 and 3800 V6 Supercharged engines) mark.
If necessary, add only enough fluid to bring the level up
to the mark.
3100 V6 Engine
3800 V6 or 3800 V6 Supercharged Engine
When the engine compartment is hot, the level should be
at the H (3100 V6 engine) or HOT (3800 V6 and
3800 V6 Supercharged engines) mark. If the fluid is at
the ADD mark, you should add fluid.
What to Use
To determine what kind of fluid to use, see
“Recommended Fluids and Lubricants” in the Index.
Always use the proper fluid. Failure to use the proper
fluid can cause leaks and damage hoses and seals.
