To add power steering fluid to a 1996 BMW 318i, follow these steps:
1. Locate the Power Steering Reservoir: The power steering fluid reservoir is typically found near the engine, driven by a belt. It may have a cap labeled "Power Steering."
2. Check Fluid Level: Remove the cap and check the fluid level using the dipstick attached to the cap or markings on the reservoir.
3. Add Fluid: If the fluid is low, pour the recommended power steering fluid into the reservoir gradually. Be careful not to overfill.
4. Secure the Cap: After filling, securely close the reservoir cap.
5. Turn the Steering Wheel: Start the engine and turn the steering wheel from lock to lock a few times to circulate the fluid.
6. Check for Leaks: Inspect for any leaks around the reservoir and power steering components.
Ensure you use the correct type of power steering fluid as specified for the vehicle.

If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or could cause injury or death, you should immediately inform the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying BMW of North America, Inc., P.O. Box 1227, Westwood, New Jersey 07675-1227, Telephone (201) 307-4000.
