Power Steering Fluid Flush

Power Steering Fluid FlushA power steering fluid flush every 2 years or 30,000 miles (48,000 km) will help prevent hydraulic power steering problems and save you from costly repair bills. Hydraulic power steering systems use pressurized power steering fluid reduce the effort required to steer your vehicle. Over time, heat generated by the power steering pump, moisture and contaminants within the system will eventually cause the fluid to break down. Once it becomes contaminated it can cause hydraulic problems and premature wear.  These problems can be very costly to diagnose and repair. A power steering fluid flush will replace 90% of the contaminated fluid with fresh new fluid and flush any contaminates out of the system. Power steering systems use specific types of power steering fluid depending on the vehicle. Always refer to service information for the specific vehicle that is being serviced. As with all preventative maintenance services, the cost of a power steering fluid flush is small compared to the repair bills you will get down the road. Remember your car is a machine with many parts and systems to keep you and your family safe on the road. Take care of it and it will take care of you.
