When to Use / Replace?

Replace your hydraulic oil every 2-3 years or 60,000-80,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. Check your owner's manual for your specific vehicle's service schedule. Signs you need replacement include stiff steering, unusual noises from the power steering pump, or visible fluid leaks under the vehicle. This synthetic oil performs reliably in temperatures from -30°C to +100°C, making it suitable for year-round use in most climates.

Proper hydraulic oil keeps your steering responsive, protects pump components from wear, and prevents system corrosion. Using the correct specification oil ensures your vehicle's power steering and suspension systems operate safely and efficiently.

Frequently Asked Questions
