    Default power steering fluid ??

    Can anyone tell me what to top up the power steering reservoir with...?? (it used to be auto transmision fluid..??)

    I dont really want to go to the stealer and get ripped off for something I can buy a lot cheaper at my local auto parts shop.....

    Its a bit low..(just touching the dip stick), but the steering isnt notchy and there are no leaks....it does squeel a bit on full lock though....

    Thanks people....

    Doesn't mention anything in the handbook, just consult your stealer..

    if it was my car, i'd be putting some Dexron 2 in it.. This is just ATF..

    the level shouldn't drop thou Bobby..no stains on pipe unions or signs of a leak??
