bit of a nightmare to get to, the reservoir is on top of the Power Steering pump which is located behind the bumper on the o/s/f corner
On newer corsas the power steering is all Electronic so it doesn't need power steering fluid.
You can pour fluid into the power steering reservoir. Remove the top to the reservoir and fill to the full Mark on the side of the reservoir.
can you tell me the location of the power steering fluid resovoir on a vauxhall vectre v6 3ltr cdti (2004 ), many thanks

1. Low steering fluid level. 2. Incorrect software version in steering ECU. 3. Failed steering ECU. Some Early Vectras (of the Vectra "C" model) had a fluid level switch in the fluid bottle. This switch is well known for giving false "low fluid" warning messages, and was deleted from later cars. There is a software update available from Vauxhall dealers, that deletes the "low fluid level" function. If the software update does not fix the problem, and the fluid level is correct, a new steering pump/ECU/fluid reservoir assembly will be needed. (or just ignore the massage)

i had this, all fluid just bust out onto road, steering became really stiff, i got it fixed for 300 quid, was power steering pump sensors and steering pump. garage said someone had messed with my car?
were is the power steering fluid resovoir on vauxhall signum 53 diesel
The most likely cause is a fault with the fluid level sensor. The sensor was removed from production about 6 months after production started, as all cars had the light coming on. If the level is Ok, your local Vauxhall dealer can probably reprogram the steering system to "ignore" the sensor.
On a 1998 Mercury Tracer : The power steering fluid reservoir is at the front of the engine compartment towards the passenger side < of the vehicle ( when looking from the FRONT of the vehicle , the power steering fluid reservoir is the reservoir on the RIGHT )
You can add power steering fluid to your 1988 Chevy Astro by removing the top to the power steering fluid reservoir. Pour the fluid directly into the reservoir.
On the left side of the engine compartment there is the reservoir for the power steering fluid. Make sure that you do not put steering fluid in the radiator reservoir.
