Power steering fluid, timing belt – Acura 2011 RL User Manual
Page 473
The timing belt should be replaced
according to the Maintenance
Minder
(see page
).
Replace the timing belt every 60,000
miles (100,000 km) if you regularly
drive your vehicle in any of the
following conditions:
If you frequently tow a trailer.
In very high temperatures
(over 110°F, 43°C).
In very low temperatures
(under
20°F,
29°C).
Pour the fluid slowly and carefully so
you do not spill any. Clean up any
spill immediately; it could damage
components in the engine
compartment.
Always use Acura Power Steering
Fluid. You may use another power
steering fluid as an emergency
replacement, but have the power
steering system flushed and refilled
with Acura PSF as soon as possible.
A low power steering fluid level can
indicate a leak in the system. Check
the fluid level frequently, and have
the system inspected as soon as
possible.
After removing the right engine
compartment cover (see page
),
check the level on the side of the
reservoir when the engine is cold.
The fluid should be between the
UPPER LEVEL and LOWER LEVEL.
If not, add power steering fluid to the
UPPER LEVEL mark.
