Additional Notes
- All four configurations — covering both Canadian and American market MDX 3.5 V6 models from 2001-2006 — share the same service specification: fluid level maintained between the minimum and maximum marks on the reservoir.
- A "between min and max" specification refers to a level check or top-up procedure rather than a measured fill volume, meaning no discrete fluid capacity in liters or quarts is assigned to the power steering service for any of these configurations.
- The 2001-2002 and 2003-2006 model year groupings are treated as separate configuration entries for both the Canadian and American markets, indicating a recognized distinction between the early and later production years of the YD1 generation.
- All four configurations are designated under normal use conditions, with no severe-use interval or alternative specification listed for any market or model year grouping.
- The Canadian and American market variants are listed as separate entries across both the 2001-2002 and 2003-2006 spans, reflecting market-specific documentation rather than a shared cross-regional specification.
