  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 1,1 liter
  • Check 20000 km/ 12 months

Additional Notes

  • The Nissan Maxima J30 power steering system holds 1.1 liters of fluid, a figure typical of a reservoir-and-rack or reservoir-and-pump circuit fill rather than a full hydraulic overhaul volume.
  • The 1.1-liter capacity applies to the J30 generation spanning 1989-1995, with no variation recorded across that model year range for the EU market.
  • The service interval is set at 20,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first, meaning both a distance threshold and a time threshold govern when the fluid condition is to be assessed.
  • The interval and capacity figures are designated for normal use conditions, meaning they reflect standard driving environments rather than elevated-stress operating scenarios.
