Bleeding the hydraulic power steering (Nissan Sunny B13)

The air should be removed from the hydraulic drive if bubbles appear in the tank, and if clicks and increased noise are heard when the pump is operating.

When turning the steering wheel slowly or driving in a straight line, the operation of the hydraulic drive is accompanied by a hissing sound, the appearance of which is not a reason to bleed the hydraulic drive.

1. Raise the front of the vehicle and support it on stands.

2. Check and, if necessary, restore the fluid level in the reservoir.

3. Ask an assistant to turn the steering wheel in both directions until it stops and watch the fluid level.

4. If the level drops, top up.

5. Repeat these steps until the level stops falling. Otherwise, there is a leak in the system.

6. Start the engine and repeat the procedure.

7. Once the level has stabilized, lower the vehicle.
