Don't forget the power steering fluid Posted by MI-Roger [Email] (#882) [Profile/Gallery] (more from MI-Roger) on Fri, 18 Jul 2014 09:09:10 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
For the past couple of weeks I have heard a faint whine from the power steering during parking lot maneuvers. Between sharing the daily drive between two cars, vacation, and faint noise level I kept forgetting about the problem while at home.
Wednesday I remembered the issue while doing other car work in the garage, so I removed the old fluid with a turkey baster and replaced with new CFH-11s. Boy, was the old fluid funky colored! I must have forgotten this work item during the 60K miles service. Car now has 89K miles.
Whine is gone but I need to empty and fill the reservoir one more time to have green fluid on the dipstick.
