Additional Notes

  • The Subaru XV GJ/GP (EU) 1.6i carries a power steering fluid capacity of 0.7 liter, a figure consistent with a service fill rather than a full system overhaul, which typically involves a larger reservoir drain and refill volume.
  • Under normal use conditions, the 1.6i power steering fluid interval is set at 24 months or 30,000 km, whichever comes first, reflecting a relatively relaxed service cadence suited to standard driving environments.
  • Under severe use conditions, the same 1.6i power steering fluid interval tightens considerably to 12 months or 15,000 km, cutting both the time and distance thresholds roughly in half compared to the normal use schedule.
  • The 0.7 liter capacity figure remains identical across both the normal and severe use rows for the 1.6i, confirming that the use condition affects only the service interval and not the fluid volume specification.
