Additional Notes

  • The Subaru Tribeca (B9) (EU) power steering system carries a capacity of 0.8-0.9 liter for the 2006-2008 model range, while all subsequent ranges from 2008 onward settle at a fixed 0.9 liter.
  • The 0.8-0.9 liter range on the 2006-2008 Tribeca reflects a service fill tolerance rather than a single fixed volume, meaning the system accepts a slight variation depending on fill conditions.
  • From 2008-2014, the capacity is listed as a single fixed value of 0.9 liter across both the preferred and acceptable fluid conditions, indicating no fill variation is expected regardless of which fluid type is used.
  • The 2006-2008 Tribeca specifications carry no service interval for the power steering fluid, whereas the 2008-2011 and 2011-2014 ranges both include a check interval of 24,000 km or 15 months.
  • The 24,000 km / 15 months interval on the 2008-2014 Tribeca is a fluid level check schedule, not a full fluid replacement interval, and applies equally to both the preferred and acceptable fluid conditions within those ranges.
  • The 2006-2008 Tribeca specifications list the fluid conditions as preferred and all other conditions, while the 2008-2011 and 2011-2014 ranges replace that second category with acceptable, representing a narrowing of the alternative fluid designation.
