Volvo FH Euro 6 (EU)

Power steering fluid capacity & service interval

The Volvo FH Euro 6 (EU) requires power steering fluid with a capacity of 4 liters. The data covers 2 configurations of this model.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

TypeSpecifications
FH 420 LNG Euro 6, G13 (2017- )
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 4 liter
FH 460 LNG Euro 6, G13 (2017- )
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 4 liter

Additional Notes

  • Both the FH 420 LNG Euro 6 and FH 460 LNG Euro 6, each fitted with the G13 engine and introduced from 2017, share an identical power steering fluid capacity of 4 liters under normal use conditions.
  • A 4-liter capacity in a heavy truck power steering system is a relatively modest reservoir volume, consistent with a sealed or semi-sealed hydraulic assist circuit rather than a high-volume open system.
  • The normal use condition tied to the 4-liter figure means the specification applies to standard operating environments, as opposed to severe-duty cycles that would carry separate service parameters.
  • The G13 engine designation is shared across both the 420 and 460 LNG variants, and neither variant deviates from the 4-liter power steering fluid figure, indicating the output difference between the two does not affect the hydraulic steering circuit capacity.
