Additional Notes

  • All four BMC Megastar variants covered in these specifications — the 290, 310, 360, and 400 — share an identical power steering fluid capacity of 2.5 liters across the 2005-2011 model range.
  • A 2.5-liter capacity is a relatively modest figure for a heavy commercial vehicle power steering system, reflecting the volume of fluid held within the reservoir and hydraulic circuit rather than a full system overhaul quantity.
  • The capacity value listed applies under normal use conditions, which in fluid service specifications generally refers to standard operating environments as opposed to severe-duty or extended-service scenarios.
  • The uniformity of the 2.5-liter figure across the 290, 310, 360, and 400 engine variants suggests a shared power steering system architecture throughout the Megastar lineup for the 2005-2011 period, regardless of engine output differences between trims.
