Product Details

Cardone Power Steering Reservoir 3R-212 is a new replacement reservoir for steering systems that use a remote reservoir layout. It follows the original equipment design and is built to restore proper fluid storage and flow in the power steering system. This part is a direct-fit style solution for 1998-2002 Honda Accord, 1999-2004 Honda Odyssey, 2001-2003 Acura CL, and 2002 Acura TL applications. This part number, 3R-212, is also referenced for Honda part number 53701S87A01.

What It Helps Address

  • Leaking reservoir body caused by cracking or age-related wear
  • Foaming power steering fluid from trapped air in the system
  • Noisy steering operation linked to restricted fluid supply
  • Loss of fluid from damaged outlet or return hose connections
  • Poor reservoir performance caused by contamination or clogging

Installation Notes and Tips

Depending on the vehicle, the reservoir may be mounted on the firewall, inner fender, or near the power steering pump. Inspect the return and outlet hoses before installation, and replace any hose showing cracking, debris, or fluid discoloration. If the fluid is foaming, bleed air from the system after service to prevent cavitation and pump damage. Confirm the reservoir location and hose routing against the vehicle service manual before installation.

Quality Assurance

Each Cardone 3R-212 reservoir is 100% tested to verify fit and function before release. It is manufactured to O.E. design standards using O.E.-grade material for durability in high-temperature engine bay conditions.
