Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow I

Power steering fluid capacity & service interval

Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow I requires power steering fluid with a capacity of 1,7 liters. The data covers 2 configurations.

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

TypeSpecifications
Silver Shadow I, > SRH 6001 (1969-1977)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 1,7 liter
Silver Shadow I, < SRH 6001 (1965-1969)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 1,7 liter

Additional Notes

  • The Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow I is split into two distinct configurations based on chassis number, with SRH 6001 serving as the dividing point between the 1965-1969 and 1969-1977 production variants.
  • Both configurations share an identical power steering fluid capacity of 1.7 liters, indicating that the chassis number boundary did not result in a change to the steering system's fluid volume requirement.
  • A capacity of 1.7 liters is consistent with a service fill figure, representing the amount of fluid held within the power steering reservoir and associated lines under normal operating conditions.
  • The normal use condition applies to both the pre- and post-SRH 6001 variants, meaning the 1.7-liter capacity figure is referenced under standard driving circumstances rather than severe or first-change-only scenarios.
