Additional Notes

  • The DAF F500 DE (4x2) power steering system holds a capacity of 3 liters, which represents the total fluid volume for a service fill of the power steering circuit.
  • The 3-liter capacity figure applies under normal use conditions, meaning standard operating environments without the heightened demands associated with severe-duty classifications.
  • A 3-liter power steering fluid capacity is relatively modest, consistent with the hydraulic assist systems found on commercial vehicles of the late 1970s and 1980s, where reservoir and line volumes were kept compact by design standards of the era.
