PAS Fluid - Quick help needed please!

Post by Rav » Fri Jul 06, 2018 2:52 pm

All,

My PAS system is leaking and the horrible sound from the rack this morning made me check the level in the bottle. I was horrified to see no fluid in there at all.

I need to get some fluid asap - i will pop into ECP on the way home. They are showing the following fluid:

TRIPLE QX Hydraulic Power steering Fluid (CHF 11S)GREEN - 1 lt
TRIPLE QX ATF Dexron III 1 Litre

Any idea if either are compatible?

Thank you.

Eurocarparts found me the right stuff. £6 for 1 ltr not bad.
I have a leaking PAS system, so didnt want to put ultra expensive in there.
