Power steering/ride-height control: visual inspection for leaks and fluid level, topping up fluid if necessary >> Checking fluid level

Checking fluid level

Carry out fluid level check with engine off at expansion tank of power steering/ride-height control; if necessary, top up hydraulic fluid (refer to OPERATING FLUIDS - STEERING ) to Max. marking (1).

NOTE: If the fluid level has dropped to the Min. marking (2), you must check the power steering and ride-height control for leaks and issue a separate invoice for this work. It is not enough merely to top up the fluid.
