Nissan Murano, Z51 (EU)

Power steering fluid capacity & service interval

Nissan Murano, Z51 (EU) models require power steering fluid with a capacity of 1 liter. Service intervals include checks at 20000 km or 12 months and 15000 km or 12 months. The data covers 2 configurations.

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

TypeSpecifications
Murano 2.5 dCi (2010-2015)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 1 liter
  • Check 20000 km/ 12 months
Murano 3.5 V6 (2008-2015)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 1 liter
  • Check 15000 km/ 12 months

Additional Notes

  • Both the 2.5 dCi (2010-2015) and the 3.5 V6 (2008-2015) share a power steering fluid capacity of 1 liter, which is a typical reservoir fill volume for a rack-and-pinion or recirculating-ball hydraulic power steering system rather than a full system overhaul quantity.
  • The Nissan Murano Z51 (EU) 3.5 V6 carries a power steering fluid check interval of every 15,000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions, whichever comes first.
  • The 2.5 dCi variant has a longer distance-based check interval of 20,000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions, compared to the 15,000 km interval specified for the 3.5 V6.
  • Both configurations share the same 12-month time-based check interval, meaning the calendar threshold is consistent across engine variants regardless of the differing mileage intervals.
  • The 5,000 km difference in check intervals between the two engine variants reflects a specification distinction tied to engine type, with the diesel 2.5 dCi rated for a longer distance between inspections than the petrol 3.5 V6.
  • The 1-liter capacity figure applies specifically to a fluid check or top-up service context, as indicated by the "Check" designation in the specifications, rather than representing a full drain-and-refill volume.
