How to Check Power Steering Fluid
To check the power steering fluid, do the following:
1. Turn the key off and let the engine compartment
cool down.
2. Wipe the cap and the top of the reservoir clean.
3. Unscrew the cap and wipe the dipstick with a
clean rag.
4. Replace the cap and completely tighten it.
5. Remove the cap again and look at the fluid level on
the dipstick.
If your vehicle has the 3.5L V6 engine, the fluid level
should be between the ADD and HOT marks when the
engine is cold, and at the HOT mark when the engine
is hot. If the fluid is at the ADD mark when the engine
is cold or hot, power steering fluid should be added.
If your vehicle has the 3.6L V6 engine, the fluid
level should be between the MIN (Minimum) and
MAX (Maximum) marks when the engine is cold and at
the MAX mark when the engine is hot. If the fluid is at the
MIN mark when the engine is cold or hot, power steering
fluid should be added.
The fluid level should be within the crosshatch area on
the dipstick.
If the fluid is at or below the ADD or MIN mark on
the dipstick, add just enough fluid to bring the level
within the crosshatch area.
What to Use
To determine what kind of fluid to use, see
Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on page 6-12.
Always use the proper fluid.
Notice: Use of the incorrect fluid may damage your
vehicle and the damages may not be covered by
your warranty. Always use the correct fluid listed in
Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on page 6-12.
