Replace power steering fluid on Fiesta? Here’s how to carry out the replacement. Lift the front bonnet of the car, remove the cap from the oil reservoir.

Raise the car and disconnect the power steering fluid return hose using pliers (block the pipe to prevent fluid spillage). Connect a drain hose in place of the disconnected hose.

Once all the fluid has drained, disconnect the drain hose and fit the oil return hose. Top up the power steering reservoir with new fluid.

Finally, test the operation of the steering wheel in all its functions.
