Glas V8
Power steering fluid capacity & service interval
Glas V8 power steering fluid capacity is 1 liter. Service intervals require a check every 5000 km. The data covers 2 configurations.
The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.
| Type | Specifications |
|---|---|
| 3000 V8 (1967-1968) |
|
| 2600 V8 (1966-1967) |

Additional Notes
- Both the 2600 V8 and 3000 V8 configurations carry a power steering fluid capacity of 1 liter, which is a figure typical of a service fill rather than a full system overhaul volume.
- The Glas V8 power steering system calls for a fluid check interval of every 5,000 km under normal use conditions, applying equally across both engine variants.
- The 2600 V8 covers the 1966-1967 model years, while the 3000 V8 spans 1967-1968, meaning the 1967 model year saw both configurations in production simultaneously.
- Both variants are noted as hydraulic power steering systems, which rely on pressurized fluid to assist steering effort and make the 1-liter capacity and regular check interval functionally significant for maintaining system pressure.
