Additional Notes

  • Across all Alfa Romeo 147 configurations listed, the power steering fluid check interval is set at 20,000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions, whichever comes first.
  • The 1.6 TS petrol variants, available in 77 kW and 88 kW outputs across 2000-2010, share a power steering fluid capacity of 1.3 liters.
  • The 2.0 TS and the 3.2 V6 GTA also carry a 1.3-liter power steering fluid capacity, placing them in the same bracket as the 1.6 TS petrol engines rather than the diesel variants.
  • The diesel variants, covering the 1.9 JTD 16V (2002-2005), the 1.9 JTDm (88 kW) (2007-2010), the 1.9 JTDm 16V (2005-2010), and the 1.9 JTDm 16V Q2 (2007-2010), all specify a lower power steering fluid capacity of 1.2 liters compared to the petrol engines.
  • The 0.1-liter difference in capacity between the petrol and diesel groups reflects a variation in the hydraulic power steering reservoir or system volume associated with each engine family, not a difference in service frequency.
  • The 147 GTA 3.2 V6, spanning 2002-2007, shares the 1.3-liter capacity figure with the smaller-displacement petrol engines despite housing a significantly larger six-cylinder unit.
  • The 1.9 JTDm 16V Q2 variant, produced 2007-2010, carries the same 1.2-liter capacity and 20,000 km check interval as the standard 1.9 JTDm 16V, indicating no change to the power steering system specification for the Q2 torque-vectoring differential variant.
