Additional Notes
- The Honda Accord III CA power steering system carries a capacity of 1.7 liters across all listed trim configurations, including the DX, LX, and LXi variants spanning 1986-1989.
- A 1.7-liter capacity for a power steering system is relatively modest, which is consistent with the rack-and-pinion hydraulic assist setups commonly found in compact and mid-size vehicles of the late 1980s.
- All three rows carry a normal use condition designation, meaning the listed 1.7-liter capacity applies under standard operating circumstances rather than severe or performance-oriented service conditions.
- The DX and LX trims share a single combined specification entry covering the full 1986-1989 model year span, while the LXi trim is split across two overlapping entries: one for 1986-1987 and another for 1987-1989.
- The 1987 model year appears in both LXi entries, indicating a mid-cycle point where the specification was carried forward without a change in the 1.7-liter capacity value.
- Despite the trim-level distinctions between the DX, LX, and LXi, the power steering fluid capacity remains uniform at 1.7 liters, suggesting a shared hydraulic system architecture across the Accord III CA lineup.
