Additional Notes

  • The Jeep Cherokee KK (EU) power steering system holds 0.8 liter across all listed configurations, a figure typical of a hydraulic power steering reservoir service fill rather than a full system flush capacity, which would include fluid retained in the rack, lines, and pump.
  • The 0.8 liter capacity applies equally to both the 130 kW and 147 kW outputs of the 2.8 CRD engine, indicating the power steering hardware is shared regardless of the engine tune.
  • DPF-equipped variants of the 2.8 CRD at 130 kW carry the same 0.8 liter power steering capacity as their non-DPF counterparts, confirming the diesel particulate filter specification does not affect the steering system fill volume.
  • All six configurations are rated for normal use conditions, meaning the 0.8 liter capacity figure is not adjusted for severe-duty operation such as frequent towing or extreme temperature environments.
  • The 130 kW 2.8 CRD and 2.8 CRD DPF variants each span two consecutive production sub-ranges, 2008-2010 and 2010-2012, with no change to the power steering capacity between those periods.
  • The 147 kW variants, both standard and DPF-equipped, are listed only from 2011-2012, representing a higher-output version of the same 2.8 CRD displacement introduced later in the KK generation, yet retaining the identical 0.8 liter steering fluid capacity.
