Steering Wheel “Box” Gasket

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
Hello Tesla Community,

I have removed my frunk cover for some cleaning and maintenance and noticed dust marks at the gasket where the steering wheel shaft connects “box” (not sure what this component is called. It seems there a small amount of oil moisture at the gasket where dust have got stuck (photo). Is that normal or a service is recommended?

To avoid creating another thread I also noticed the fluid level for my coolant reservoir maybe low? I don’t see any marks where normal should be (photo). Do I also need to service to replenish it?

I appreciate your input.

Zach

Looks like a normal amount of seepage at the power steering input to me. Difficult to determine the proper level of coolant without low and high markings but if there is no leakage then I would not worry about it.
