I ordered this: https://www.driftshop.com/universal-...ooler-kit.html which seems to me like something that should suffice. I only just now went to see where and how I'd install it, and I see that our cars come with the power steering cooler (as in the pic above) - so I just wanted to check - is it enough just to replace this cooler one with the other? Or is there some additional work necessary? I thought I'd just drop the OEM cooler, drain the fluid, install the new one, fill it with the new fluid, add remainder of fluid and I guess that's it?
Any advice would be appreciated, thank you! |
I have the Z1 power steering cooler. It's easy to install a cooler. Remove the oem one. Install the new one, and hook up the lines. I would only fill the reservoir to the add line. Start the engine and turn the steering wheel full left and full right a couple of times. Then check the reservoir again. Don't fill it pass the add line since you track. This keeps the fluid from overflowing out of the reservoir.
