How to add power steering fluid to 2008 pontiac g6

I am guessing that you have the 3.6 liter engine. There is a plastic cover on the engine it has to be removed it just pulls off, it might feel like it pulls a little hard at first but it will come off. Then you will see it right behind the air intake hose. Even if you have the 6.0 liter engine it is also under the engine cover. Here is the actual procedure from gm's service manual, I am a 100% trained gm certified technician and also an ASE master technician. I hope that this helped.


Checking and Adding Power Steering Fluid

Notice: When adding fluid or making a complete fluid change, always use the proper power steering fluid. Failure to use the proper fluid will cause hose and seal damage and fluid leaks.

Important: When checking the fluid level after servicing the steering system, bleed the air from the system. Refer to Power Steering System Bleeding.


1. Remove the engine dress cover. Refer to Engine Cover Replacement for the 2.8L, 3.0L, 3.2L, or 3.6L engines, or Engine Cover Replacement for the 4.8L, 5.3L, 6.0L, 6.2L, or 7.0L engines.



2. Clean the area surrounding the power steering fluid reservoir cap and level indicators.



3. Make sure that the fluid level is at the correct level mark on the power steering fluid reservoir.






• If fluid is hot, the fluid level should be at the MAX level mark on the reservoir.



• If fluid is cold, the fluid level should be at the MIN level mark on the reservoir.





4. Remove the power steering fluid reservoir cap.



Important: Use approved new power steering fluid from a sealed container. For fluid specifications refer to Fluid and Lubricant Recommendations.





5. Add power steering fluid as required, until the correct fluid level is obtained.



6. Install the power steering fluid reservoir cap.
   

If you can't find a power steering fluid reservoir under the hood in the engine compartment your G6 could have Electronic Power Steering . If you look up under the dash below the steering column you will see a electric motor mounted to the steering column !
The power steering system reduces the amount of effort needed to steer the vehicle. The system uses the powertrain control module (PCM), body control module (BCM), power steering control module (PSCM), discrete battery voltage supply circuit, steering shaft torque sensor, steering wheel position sensor, power steering motor, driver information center (DIC), and the serial data circuit to perform the system functions. The PSCM and the power steering motor are serviced as an assembly and are serviced separately from the steering column assembly. The steering shaft torque sensor and the steering wheel position sensor are not serviced separately from each other or from the steering column assembly. The steering column assembly does not include the power steering motor and module assembly.
