What Is Power Steering Fluid?
Power steering fluid is a type of fluid that helps to move the power steering system in vehicles. It helps to provide feedback to the driver so that they can properly operate the vehicle. Power steering fluid is also necessary for systems such as ABS and traction control.
What Does Power Steering Fluid Do?
Power steering fluid is one of those essentials that you might not think about much, but it’s actually a critical part of your car’s function. Power steering fluid helps to steer the car by providing a thin layer of lubrication between the power steering pump and the car’s axle.
If your power steering system doesn’t have enough fluid, it might not be able to provide the necessary level of lubrication. This can lead to decreased performance and increased wear on the components in your power steering system. By keeping your power steering system properly lubricated, you can help keep your car running smoothly and ensure long-term durability.
If you suspect that your power steering system needs more fluid, don’t hesitate to bring it in for a check. Our team at Dollar General can help you identify any issues with your system and recommend the best course of action to take.
How to Find Power Steering Fluid at Dollar General
Power steering fluid keeps your car moving in the right direction. In order to diagnose a power steering issue, it’s important to know how much power steering fluid is needed and where to find it.
To determine how much power steering fluid is needed, first check the fluid level. Fill a container three-fourths full of water and place the Power Steering Fluid Level Gauge in the fill opening. Turn the wheel all the way to one side and read the fluid level. This will give you an idea of how much fluid is required.
If you’re not sure where to find power steering fluid, look for the P/S reservoir. It’s usually located on the left side of the engine near the firewall. Remove the cover and look for the reservoir. If it’s empty, replace the power steering filter and add new power steering fluid according to directions on the container.
