00 00... Power steering/ride-height control: visual inspection for leaks and fluid level, topping up fluid if necessary
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 BMW 530i, 2002 BMW 530i, and 2001 BMW 530i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Visual Inspection And Leak Test
Check connections, hoses and steering gear for traces of fluid.
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 - MAINTENANCE & GENERAL INFORMATION ) 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.
