Additional Notes

  • The Fiat 130 (EU) power steering system holds a capacity of 0.9 liter across all four listed configurations, spanning the 103 kW and 119 kW 2900 variants, the 3200, and the Coupé BC.
  • A 0.9 liter capacity in a power steering reservoir is a relatively modest volume, consistent with a hydraulic assist system designed for fluid level maintenance rather than high-volume circulation.
  • All configurations share a 5000 km check interval under normal use conditions, meaning the fluid level is to be inspected at every 5000 km increment rather than replaced on a fixed drain schedule.
  • The 130 2900 in its 103 kW form, produced during 1969-1970, carries the same 0.9 liter capacity and 5000 km check interval as the higher-output 119 kW version introduced in 1970-1971, indicating no change in system sizing between the two power outputs.
  • The transition from the 2900 engine variants to the 3200 in 1971 brought no alteration to the power steering fluid capacity or service check interval, with the 3200 retaining the 0.9 liter fill and 5000 km schedule through 1977.
  • The 130 Coupé BC, also produced from 1971-1977, shares identical power steering specifications with the 3200 saloon, reflecting a common hydraulic system architecture between the two body styles of that period.
