Do I have Electronic Power Steering?

Len_Beach · 02-21-2016, 06:53 AM

I'm in the process of changing all fluids in my 2009 330d LCI and have reached the power steering.

I can't find a reservoir which I believe should be in the front right of the engine bay next to the coolant tank?

If I have EPS; is it a 100% dry system or is there fluid to change somewhere?

No reservoir = EPS, so there is no fluid.

All LCI cars bar the 335's had eps. It was part of the Effecient Dynamics push.

Thanks Gents. So essentially maintenance free?
