Dorman603-709 Power Steering Reservoir with Cap Compatible with Select Acura / Honda Models

Direct replacement for the reservoir on my 2006 Ridgeline. Worked as intended.

Solid replacement for a Honda genuine part. Well made and easy to install. Fair price.

First first gen ridgeline

This one seems to be the upgraded one too. I needed to change mine out as I just hit 300,000 miles and it was looking rough. Probably should have done it 100k ago but oh well. This along with new fluid and an o-ring it fixed the loud winding noise. Worth it!!

I thought I needed a new power steering pump until I watched a few YouTube videos that suggested replacing the O rings and reservoir instead. Boy! They were spot on. The whole process took less than an hour and make sure to use a vehicle specific synthetic fluid (in my case, Honda).

Feels oem, no issues took 5 minutes to replace

Changed / flushed the power steering fluid and replaced the reservoir as shown in an online video. Power steering smoothed out and is now quiet. Video stated that the reservoir has an internal filter. I was not aware of the filter. Old oil was very dark and I assume the filter was getting plugged.

This was a lot cheaper than the Honda brand and it came with the cap. The problem is the hose bib angles aren’t in the exact spot as the original. The tube would have been kinked if I installed it. I returned it and ordered a genuine Honda part
