  Q: How to replace the Power Steering Reservoir on Chevrolet SSR?

  A: The replacement of power steering reservoir requires placing the hydraulic pump on a solid flat surface with its shaft at an upward position. You should use a screwdriver to extend the retaining clip tab while pushing the reservoir clip away from its position in the hydraulic pump assembly. Remove the second reservoir clip through the same procedure before extracting the reservoir from its position in the hydraulic pump housing. The neck of the reservoir or inside the hydraulic pump housing requires discarding the O-ring seal. Apply power steering fluid on the new O-ring seal before fitting it to the reservoir neck. After installing the reservoir onto the hydraulic pump assembly ensure its neck extends completely into position. Follow the sides of the hydraulic pump housing with the feet of the reservoir before installing the new reservoir retaining clips provided by the pump manufacturer while verifying that the retaining clip tabs extend fully into the hydraulic pump housing.
