For 2000 to 2006 chassis only mentioned in the title. But Please Please READ. Does not work with ABC suspension. Does NOT work on SL55. Power steering reservoir is NOT for the Mercedes R230 . The kit includes a new tank with a built-in filter screen, a new correct seal, a syringe to extract the old fluid, a hose, and caps to complete a full fluid flush. The instructions will show the installation of the external magnetic filter (available separately below), but you can disregard it and just install the return hose directly into the new reservoir. This will fit almost all V6 and V8 engines from 2000 to 2006. Watch the video below as Kent will explain the basics of using this kit.
