External Leak Check

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Suzuki Verona. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The purpose of this procedure is to pinpoint the location of the leak. In some cases, the leak can be easily located, but seepage-type leaks may be harder to find. To locate see page leaks, use the following method:

  1. With the engine off, wipe dry the complete power steering system.
  2. Check the power steering fluid level in the pump's reservoir. Adjust the fluid level as necessary. Refer to Checking and Adding Fluid .
  3. Start the engine. Turn the steering wheel counterclockwise and clockwise from stop to stop several times.
    CAUTION: Do not hold the steering wheel at a stop for any length of time as this can damage the power steering pump.
  4. Find the exact area of the leak and repair it.
