Additional Notes

  • The Mercedes-Benz 190 / 200 / 230, W110 (Heckflosse / Fintail) steering box carries a power steering fluid capacity of 0.3 liter, which is a notably small fill volume consistent with a recirculating ball steering box rather than a rack-and-pinion or full hydraulic pump-and-reservoir system.
  • The 0.3 liter figure applies to the 190 c, W110 covering the 1961-1965 model years under normal use conditions, meaning the interval and capacity are not adjusted for severe or heavy-duty operating environments.
  • A capacity as low as 0.3 liter indicates a service fill rather than an overhaul quantity, reflecting the limited fluid volume held within the steering box assembly itself rather than a separate remote reservoir circuit.
