Additional Notes

  • The Roewe W5 power steering system holds 1 liter of fluid across all engine and drivetrain configurations listed, including the 1.8 FWD, 1.8 AWD, and 3.2 AWD variants starting from 2011.
  • The 1 liter capacity figure represents a service fill level, meaning the amount of fluid the power steering reservoir and circuit hold during normal operation rather than a full system overhaul quantity.
  • For the W5 1.8 AWD variants fitted with CSA6472AC, CSA6472WDAP, or CSA6472WVAP engines, a normal-use service interval of 20,000 km or 12 months applies, whichever comes first.
  • The same 1.8 AWD engine configurations carry a separate first-change-only interval of 10,000 km or 6 months, meaning the initial power steering fluid change is due at half the distance and half the time of all subsequent changes.
  • The shortened first-change interval of 10,000 km or 6 months on the W5 1.8 AWD reflects a break-in period practice, where early fluid replacement removes contaminants introduced during initial system operation before the standard 20,000 km cycle takes over.
  • The W5 1.8 FWD variants with CSA6471AC, MC, CSA6472WDMN, WVMN, WDAN, or WVAN engine codes share the same 1 liter capacity as the AWD configurations, though no change interval is specified in the available data for those variants.
  • The W5 3.2 AWD, covering CSA6470AB and CSA6470AC engine codes, also carries a 1 liter power steering capacity under normal use conditions, with no change interval listed in the specifications for that configuration.
