The Benefits of Valvoline Power Steering Service

Does Your Power Steering Whine or Feel Stiff?

If you're experiencing stiff steering, especially during a cold morning start, a soft steering response or a whine or squeal when you turn your wheel at idle, you may need a VPS Power Steering service. Your owners manual will tell you about preventative maintenance services and these services can also be performed as needed. However, if you're  experiencing any of the symptoms above, a fluid exchange is recommended. Your power steering pump pressurizes your power steering fluid to assist in the hard work of steering your car. The internal heat and pressure can break down the performance of the power steering fluid over time. When power steering fluid is neglected, it can lead to increased wear of the pump, valve, gears and seals.

We're committed to providing you excellent service.

Maintaining your vehicle requires more than just changing your oil. You want to protect your investment as well as maximize the performance of your vehicle. You also need to maintain other critical systems in your vehicle like the brakes, coolant system, fuel system, power steering and transmission. Valvoline Professional Series services help restore and protect optimal performance of these critical systems.

Step 1

The first step in any power steering service is to remove any worn out or contaminated fluid and give the system a thorough cleaning. We use VPS Solvent-Free Power Steering Cleaner to help remove sludge and contaminants from the entire power steering system without harming critical seals and components.

Step 2

The next step is to install VPS Steering Fluid. This advanced synthetic based formula helps prevent leaks and squeals while it protects against erosion, wear and mechanical breakdown. You'll get optimal steering performance, even in the most extreme Tucson temperatures.
