Product Details and Features

The 3R-214 power steering reservoir is constructed from high-quality plastic, designed to resist cracking and leaks that commonly affect older reservoirs. Its white color allows for easy fluid level inspection. The included cap ensures a tight seal to prevent contamination and fluid loss. This reservoir is remote mounted, which means it is positioned away from the power steering pump, typically behind the engine bay, depending on the vehicle model.

Common Issues Addressed by This Reservoir

• Leaking caused by cracks in the original reservoir body
• Foaming fluid due to trapped air in the power steering system
• Replacement of worn or damaged reservoirs in Acura and Honda Civic, CR-V, and EL models
• Maintaining proper fluid levels to prevent steering system damage
• Resolving power steering fluid contamination and leakage problems

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Cardone 3R-214 power steering reservoir, ensure the system is depressurized and fluid is drained to avoid spills. Since mounting brackets and hardware are not included, reuse existing components or source compatible hardware. Check for any air trapped in the system after installation, as this can cause foaming fluid. Bleed the power steering system according to manufacturer guidelines to restore proper function.
