Product Details

Cardone’s New Power Steering Reservoir line focuses on stand-alone reservoir replacement as well as support during a full pump service. This reservoir is built to OE design standards and is 100% tested for fit and function. On vehicles such as the Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana, a restricted or damaged reservoir can contribute to steering noise, reduced pressure, or fluid aeration, so replacing the reservoir can restore proper system flow when the rest of the steering components are in good condition.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Power steering fluid leaks from a cracked reservoir body or hose tube
• Noise caused by restricted fluid flow through a clogged remote reservoir
• Foaming fluid from air trapped in the steering system after service
• Contamination concerns when old reservoir internals shed debris into the fluid
• Poor steering assist related to reservoir flow restriction

Installation Notes and Tips

Inspect the outlet and return hoses before installation, since aged hoses can be a source of leaks or debris. If the fluid is dark, grey, or contaminated, service the fluid and evaluate the hoses at the same time. After installation, bleed air from the power steering system to reduce foaming and noise. Depending on the vehicle, the reservoir may be mounted on the firewall, inner fender, or near the pump.

Quality Assurance

This Cardone reservoir is new, follows OE design, and is tested to verify proper fit and function. It includes the reservoir cap and is built for the listed Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana applications.
