Its design combines high-strength engineering plastics with anti-leakage sealing technology to effectively extend the service life and adapt to the original vehicle pipeline interface, providing performance consistent with the original parts. The reservoir includes a matching hose kit and an integrated built-in filter to filter impurities in the steering fluid to prevent system clogging.
2. Functions of power steering reservoir 32411097164 32411094306 32411095526
(1) Power steering fluid storage and supply
The main function of power steering reservoir 2411097164 32411094306 32411095526 is to store power steering fluid and transport the fluid to components such as the power steering pump and steering gear through pipes. The power steering fluid plays the role of lubrication, cooling and power transmission in the system, ensuring that the steering system can work smoothly and easily.
(2) Fluid level monitoring function
The power steering reservoir is equipped with a fluid level sensor or a scale ruler, which can intuitively display the fluid level of the power steering fluid. Car owners and maintenance personnel can observe the fluid level and promptly discover the lack of fluid level and replenish it to avoid steering system failure or damage due to low fluid level.
(3) Filtering function
The power steering reservoir has a built-in filter device that can filter impurities and dirt in the power steering fluid. If these impurities enter the key components of the steering system, such as the steering pump and steering gear, they may cause component wear, blockage or performance degradation. The filtering function can effectively extend the service life of the steering system and maintain the efficient operation of the system.
(4) Heat dissipation function
The power steering fluid may overheat under long-term high-load operation or high-temperature environment, thereby affecting the performance of the steering system. The power steering reservoir is designed with a heat dissipation structure that can effectively reduce the liquid temperature and ensure that the steering system can maintain good working condition under various working conditions.

These materials can not only withstand various harsh environments during vehicle driving, but also ensure that the reservoir maintains stable performance and long service life in long-term use.
(3) Reliable quality assurance
This power steering reservoir has undergone rigorous quality inspection and testing and meets international standards and original factory requirements. Its manufacturing process is exquisite, and every detail has been carefully designed and optimized to ensure reliable performance under various working conditions. In addition, the product also provides a 12-month warranty service, so that consumers can buy without worry.
(4) Improve driving safety and comfort
By ensuring a stable supply and good condition of the power steering fluid, the reservoir can effectively improve the steering performance of the vehicle. The driver can feel easier and more precise steering operations during driving, especially when driving at high speeds or making emergency avoidance maneuvers, which can significantly improve driving safety and comfort.
4. Applications
This power steering reservoir 2411097164 32411094306 32411095526 fits many models of BMW such as: BMW E39 520i 525i 528i 530i BMW Z3 BMW Z4 and BMW X1 X5
If you own one of these vehicles or are a professional mechanic servicing BMW cars, this part is essential for maintaining the proper functioning of the power steering system. It ensures that the vehicle can be steered smoothly and safely, providing a comfortable driving experience for the users.
5. FAQs
How to check the power steering fluid level?
To check the power steering fluid level, ensure that the vehicle is parked on a level surface and that the engine is turned off. Then, open the hood and locate the power steering reservoir, from which you can see the fluid level sensing mechanism or scale. The fluid level should be between “MIN” and “MAX”. If it is less than “MIN”, the power steering fluid must be topped up in due course.
How often should the power steering fluid be changed?
Most shops will recommend a change every 2 years or 40,000 kilometers. The specific change frequency also has to be adjusted according to the actual use of the vehicle and driving habits. If the fluid becomes turbid or darker in color, it should be changed in time.
What should one pay attention to when installing power steering reservoir?
Ensure that all pipes connections are sealed and there is no leakage when installing the power steering reservoir. During installation, do not over-tighten the bolts to avoid damaging the reservoir or parts connected to it. After installation, start the engine and check whether the steering system is working properly and check the fluid level again.
Is this power steering reservoir manufactured by BMW?
This is a genuine BMW Power Steering Reservoir. Since it comes straight from BMW, you’re guaranteed the best quality and fit for your vehicle. The part number 32411097164 is applicable to several models of BMW, particularly the E39 and E38 series.
