Lifan 720

Power steering fluid capacity & service interval

Lifan 720 uses power steering fluid with a capacity of 1 liter. Service intervals include checking at 3000 km/3 months, 5000 km/6 months, or 10000 km/9 months, and changing at 20000 km/24 months or 25000 km/27 months. The data covers 6 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • The Lifan 720 power steering system holds 1 liter of fluid across both the 1.5 LF7158 and 1.8 LF7185 engine variants, indicating a consistent reservoir capacity regardless of engine displacement.
  • Under normal use conditions, the power steering fluid check interval is set at 5,000 km or every 6 months, with a full fluid change due at 20,000 km or every 24 months.
  • The initial service schedule calls for an earlier check at 3,000 km or 3 months, reflecting a tighter inspection window during the early period of vehicle operation.
  • Under the initial service condition, the fluid change interval extends to 25,000 km or 27 months, which is longer than the 20,000 km or 24-month interval applied under normal use conditions.
  • A second check only condition is specified at 10,000 km or 9 months, with no fluid change listed for that interval, meaning the service action at that point is limited to inspection rather than replacement.
  • The 1-liter capacity figure applies uniformly to both engine codes across all three use conditions, suggesting the power steering reservoir design is shared between the 1.5 and 1.8 configurations.
