Additional Notes

  • The Subaru WRX STI 2.5T (VA, EU) carries a power steering fluid capacity of 0.7 liter, a figure consistent with a service fill rather than a full system overhaul, which would typically require draining and refilling the reservoir and lines.
  • Under normal use conditions, the power steering fluid check interval is set at 24 months or 30,000 km, whichever comes first, applying to the 2014-2019 model years.
  • Under severe use conditions, the same 0.7-liter capacity applies, but the check interval shortens considerably to 12 months or 15,000 km, reflecting the increased stress placed on hydraulic fluid under demanding driving circumstances.
  • The capacity figure of 0.7 liter remains identical across both the normal and severe use schedules, meaning the difference between the two service regimes lies entirely in inspection frequency rather than in the volume of fluid involved.
