CARDONE Recommends Fluid List for Power Steering

OEs recommend many different types of fluids for use in power steering systems.

When flushing a power steering system or replacing a power steering pump you should be thinking, "What type of fluid should I use in my power steering system?" You might think "Power steering fluid, of course!" Not necessarily so. The fact is, OEs recommend many different types of fluids for use in power steering systems.
