Nissan Kicks Power Steering Malaysia — EPS P15
Kicks uses electric power steering (EPS) on both standard and e-Power variants — no hydraulic fluid to service. EPS is generally reliable; fault codes typically relate to the steering angle sensor (required for stability control calibration) or EPS motor overload from sustained low-speed manoeuvring (parking). After any suspension work or tyre change, recalibrate the steering angle sensor via OBD-II tool. The EPS contributes to better fuel economy vs hydraulic systems — no parasitic belt load on the HR16DE.
