my vectra C has a bit of seepage on the power steering rack & last night the low fluid warning briefly flashed up .
decided to top it up today rather than wait for the warning to come on all the time & end up killing the pump .
went to halfords to get some fluid & a long funnel ( to get down the back of the headlight)
upon checking their book of fluids it says the vectra c 2.0 dti 2002 - 2005 uses normal power steering fluid .
below that it lists a few other vectra c ( mostly petrol ) & states that they need the chf 11s fluid , it also has a star next to such vehicles & at the bottom of the list it says this star means they have electro hydraulic power steering .
my assumption would be that their list is wrong as my car also has electro hydraulic power steering , so why would it have normal fluid in it if the rest are meant to have the other type ?
anyone shed any light on this ?
