How to check the power steering fluid level on Peugeot vehicles

Model: Peugeot 308 P5, MK 3 - Years 2021-2026
Part: Power steering fluid

In this video, we will see how to check the power steering fluid on Peugeot cars: park on a flat surface, turn off the engine, and keep the steering wheel straight. The fluid reservoir is located on the right side of the engine compartment, below the coolant reservoir. Start by cleaning the area around the cap, then unscrew it: the cap has an integrated level stick, and the level should be just below the "max" mark. If the level is low, top up with Total fluide DA, which can be found on autofixer. It has the code 4748447 at a price of 15.32 euros + 8.99 euros for shipping: be careful not to overfill, the level should remain between "min" and "max". Close the cap; if frequent top-ups are necessary, have it checked by a specialized workshop: it means there is a leak.
