How to Check Power Steering Fluid in a Vehicle

Hi! I’m William Myers with Subaru for Expert Village. We’re going to check your power steering level now, now your power stirring can be checked without removing anything but we’re going to remove this air duct piece here so you can get a better look at what we’re exactly doing but you can check the level without removing it. So let’s get this piece out of the way real fast, okay now that we’ve got that air duct out of the way you can see your power stirring reservoir it’s right here, if I shine this flashlight down this hole and this power stirring reservoir you can see the minimum and the maximum line and you can see right where the fluid comes to on that maximum line if I shake the bottle a little bit you can see it move. My fluid level is right at the maximum line and if you want to add fluid it’ll go right where I shine that flashlight right through that hole and you’ll use standard dextrin II on all Subaru power stirring systems. That’s how you check and add fluid to your power stirring reservoir.
