To keep your 2002 Toyota Camry running smoothly, make sure to use DEXRON-III power steering fluid. The car requires about 1 liter or 1.05 US quarts of this fluid. Power steering fluid acts as hydraulic fluid in the steering system, making it easier for you to maneuver the wheel. It's recommended to change this fluid every 60,000 miles. Signs that indicate low or dirty fluid include difficulty in steering, loud steering noises, or leaks under the vehicle. If you choose to have a mechanic perform the fluid change, labor costs typically range from $160 to $200, with additional charges for parts.
The power steering fluid for a 2002 Toyota Camry must be OEM fluid that is dexron and does not contain any red dye.
