Power Steering
Warning!
Risk of accidents. When the engine is
stationary (e.g. when on tow) or the hydraulic
system fails, there is no power steering
assistance available.
Therefore, substantially more force will have
to be exerted to steer the vehicle.
f Exercise extreme care when your vehicle is
being towed.
f Have the fault corrected. Please contact a
qualified specialist workshop. We recommend
that you have an authorized Porsche dealer to
do this work as they have trained workshop personnel and the necessary parts and tools.
Regular checking of hydraulic fluid is part of
servicing.
The flow noise heard at full steering lock is design-
related and does not indicate a defect in the
steering system. Vehicles with Porsche Dynamic Chassis
Control (PDCC)
If the fluid level is too
low, the message “Check
steering oil level” will appe ar on the multi-function
display.
f Have the fluid level checked immediately.
f Please contact a qualified specialist workshop.
We recommend that you have an authorized
Porsche dealer to do this work as they have
trained workshop personnel and the necessary
parts and tools.
