PAZ 3237

Power steering fluid capacity & service interval

PAZ 3237 power steering fluid capacity ranges from 1,1 to 8,5 liters. Service intervals include checks at 15000 km and changes at 60000 km, 120000 km/36 months, or 210000 km/36 months. The data covers 4 configurations.

Additional Notes

  • The PAZ 3237-05 carries a power steering fluid capacity of 8.5 liters, a figure substantially larger than the 1.1-liter capacity listed for the 3237-01, 3237-03, and 3237-09 variants, reflecting a meaningfully different steering system architecture between these configurations.
  • The 1.1-liter capacity on the 3237-01, 3237-03, and 3237-09 is listed without any interval data, meaning no check or change schedule is associated with the power steering system on those variants.
  • On the PAZ 3237-05, the power steering fluid is subject to a check interval of every 15,000 km regardless of operating conditions, applying equally across normal, severe, and first-change-only service categories.
  • Under normal use conditions, the 3237-05 specifies a power steering fluid change at 210,000 km or 36 months, whichever comes first, representing the longest change interval among the three service categories listed for the variant.
  • Under severe use conditions, the 3237-05 change interval shortens to 120,000 km while retaining the same 36-month time limit, meaning the time-based threshold remains unchanged even as the distance threshold drops significantly compared to normal use.
  • The first-change-only category on the 3237-05 specifies a fluid change at 60,000 km with no time-based limit stated, distinguishing it from both the normal and severe categories, which each carry a 36-month ceiling alongside their respective distance intervals.
  • The gap between the first-change-only interval of 60,000 km and the normal-use change interval of 210,000 km on the 3237-05 indicates that the initial factory fill is treated as a distinct service event before the standard recurring schedule takes effect.
