I have been having a problem with my 2013 Cadillac SRX Lift gate. It started out with the left lift gate actuator sticking and screeching. I replaced it, which was a little tough. It works better but I fear there is not enough Hydraulic fluid left in the pump. My question is: Can I fill the Hydraulic Pump 25965861 up with fluid myself? If no, how?
Yes, you can fill it your self.
