Default 997 Cup Power Steering Fluid Level

Hi,

Is the small white upper filler reservoir (circled in yellow) just for overflow or should the power steering fluid level be filled all the way up to the white little container between Min and Max or should it just be close to the top of the reservoir down below as it is currently?

I used a turkey baster and sucked out the old fluid and put in fresh and put it back to the level it was at, but after reading I wasn't sure this was correct.

Thanks

That's the overflow bottle. The level looks a tad high in the pump but you should be fine.

Thanks Cory.

Should the level be approx the top of the stamp on the bottom shown by the orange line?

make sure to rubber band a towel around the lower cap. Will keep your trunk clean.
