What Is This? Rb26Dett

[slusarczykr33]

so i havent had my gtr for very long now and looking through fluids etc and i noticed this cylinder which i unscrewed to have a look and has a measuring dipper for a range of hot and cold, i presume the liquid should be in between cold while cold etc but what liquid is it??? (cylinder type container near the pod filter piping)

Going for service on monday as i have a few oil leaks, presuming they are cracked seals and gaskets???

Is it red in colour. Im pretty shore it is your power steering fluid.

[slusarczykr33]

not really red more yellowish

Power steering. Possibly worth getting flushed while you're getting a service. Generally lasts a few years before being cactus. In saying that the Nissan p/s fluid seems to last a bit longer. Chances are it's a few years old by now so just do it regardless.

alright cheers for the help guys

I think thats a non-standard cap as well. The factory one has a level gauge in it and two wires out the top that will throw an error light on the dash when the level gets low. Check if there's an electric plug with two contacts nearby.

I use full synth ATF in mine - lasts a lot longer and has a higher boiling point. Some find their fluid boils at track days.

R33's don't have a low level warning. Mine is the same as the picture. You wont find an extra plug.
