Shanghai Maple Automobile Haixun

Power steering fluid capacity & service interval

Shanghai Maple Automobile Haixun requires 1 liter of power steering fluid. Service intervals include checking every 5000 km or 3 months and changing every 20000 km. The data covers 2 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • Both the Shanghai Maple Automobile Haixun 1.5 and 1.8 share an identical power steering fluid capacity of 1 liter, which is a typical reservoir fill volume for a passenger car rack-and-pinion or recirculating ball power steering system.
  • The 1-liter capacity figure represents a service fill level rather than a full system overhaul volume, reflecting the amount of fluid held in the reservoir under normal operating conditions.
  • Under normal use conditions, the power steering fluid on both engine variants follows a check interval of every 5,000 km or 3 months, whichever comes first, indicating a relatively frequent monitoring schedule tied to either mileage or calendar time.
  • The change interval for power steering fluid on both the 1.5 and 1.8 variants is set at 20,000 km under normal use conditions, placing a full fluid replacement at four times the frequency of each routine check.
  • The alignment of capacity, check interval, and change interval across both the 1.5 and 1.8 engine configurations starting from 2006 indicates no variation in power steering fluid service requirements between the two engine displacements.
