Additional Notes
- The Mitsubishi Starion (EU) power steering system is covered across two engine variants, the 2.0 Turbo spanning 1984-1986 and the 2.6 Turbo spanning 1986-1990, each carrying distinct capacity and interval figures.
- The 2.0 Turbo power steering reservoir holds 0.9 liter, while the 2.6 Turbo equivalent holds 1.06 liter, reflecting a modest but measurable difference between the two engine configurations.
- The 2.0 Turbo also carries a separate steering gear capacity of 0.28 liter, which represents the fluid volume held within the steering gear housing itself rather than the pump reservoir circuit.
- Under normal use conditions, the 2.0 Turbo power steering fluid is subject to a check interval of 10,000 km or 12 months, with no scheduled drain and refill interval listed for that component.
- The steering gear on the 2.0 Turbo operates on a longer check interval of 20,000 km or 24 months under normal use conditions, double the frequency applied to the power steering reservoir on the same variant.
- The 2.6 Turbo power steering specification includes both a check interval of 10,000 km or 12 months and a change interval of 40,000 km or 48 months under normal use conditions, making a full fluid replacement part of the scheduled maintenance for that variant.
