Power steering fluid is often neglected by motorists until a problem arises. It must combat contaminants and undergo temperature extremes while simultaneously fulfilling its role as a hydraulic fluid. Like any other lubricant, power steering fluid accumulates wear material and other debris over time, and therefore should be changed at prescribed intervals. AMSOIL Multi-Vehicle Synthetic Power Steering Fluid’s durable synthetic formulation is designed to provide long, trouble-free service in most domestic and foreign passenger cars and light trucks.
Promotes Long Component Life
Multi-Vehicle Synthetic Power Steering Fluid’s synthetic chemistry delivers excellent lubricity and friction-reduction properties. As a result, power steering pump components and hoses receive maximum protection against wear and stress for long life and reliable performance.
Excellent Extreme-Temperature Performance
In cold weather, conventional power steering fluid can thicken enough to prevent adequate fluid flow, resulting in power steering pump “whine” and poor operation. Multi-Vehicle Synthetic Power Steering Fluid is formulated with a low pour point that ensures excellent fluidity in cold temperatures, resulting in quiet operation and reliable wear protection. At elevated operating temperatures, it resists thermal breakdown to help components remain clean and last long.

Applications
AMSOIL Multi-Vehicle Synthetic Power Steering Fluid is recommended for power steering systems requiring any of the following specifications:
Fluid Extraction Pump
AMSOIL offers a fluid extraction pump (G2576) to aid in the removal of used fluids when servicing vehicles. This high-quality pump can be used to remove old power steering fluid when converting a vehicle to AMSOIL Multi-Vehicle Synthetic Power Steering Fluid. It can also be used to remove other fluids such as engine oil, drivetrain lubricants and engine coolant. (sold separately – Click Here To Order)
SERVICE LIFE
Change your vehicle’s power steering fluid at the original equipment manufacturer (OEM)-recommended interval. Follow the OEM’s service recommendations to ensure optimum performance.
