Additional Notes

  • The Opel Omega A (V87) power steering system carries a uniform 1-liter capacity across all four listed configurations, covering the 2.6i, 3.0i 24V (147 kW), 3000 24V (150 kW), and Evolution 500 variants.
  • A 1-liter figure for a power steering reservoir is a typical service fill capacity, representing the fluid volume needed to top up or refill the hydraulic circuit rather than a full system overhaul quantity.
  • All four configurations carry a normal use condition designation, meaning the 1-liter capacity value applies under standard operating circumstances rather than severe or first-change-only scenarios.
  • The 3000 24V (150 kW) has the earliest start year among the listed variants, with specifications beginning from 1989, while the 2.6i and 3.0i 24V (147 kW) entries both begin from 1990.
  • Despite the difference in output between the 3.0i 24V at 147 kW and the 3000 24V at 150 kW, both share an identical 1-liter power steering capacity, indicating no variation in hydraulic system sizing between those two closely related six-cylinder engines.
  • The Evolution 500, a limited-production performance variant running from 1991-1993, carries the same 1-liter power steering capacity as the standard range models listed alongside it.
