Power Steering System are less complicated systems compared to Automatic Transmission, in fact its only function is to lessen the driver's effort in steering the car, there are no special thing about them compared to automatic transmission fluid requirement. They are like most hydraulic systems, same as with your ordinary bottle jack, crocodile jack, car lifter, whereas automatic transmission operate more into extreme heat, more power transfer, longer working time. So I think ATF (automatic Transmission Fluid) are more than enough to pass the requirement of Power Steering FLuid, as with honda power steering system, they are the same in design with other power steering system.

Honda is specific with their fluids... PSF, ATF, Engine oil, and coolant.

I wouldn't bother with the risks. New steering rack or pump?... no thanks.. :D

Ang power steering fluid specs na nakalagay sa owner's manual ng VW Polo is: Audi/VW hydraulic oil G 002 000. Does anyone know kung anong locally available na psf ang compliant sa ganyang specs/grade? TIA

For my Corolla GLi, any Dexron type ATF, pwede na. Use ko sa automatic transmission ay Whiz DIII/Merc ATF kaya yun na din gamit sa PS.

i came upon a brand of powersteering fluid. "Power Gold" brand. US brand ang nakasulat and can be found in your suking auto supply. I read the fine print at the back, "NOT RECOMMENDED FOR HONDA USE" .

So i assume na iba nga ang power steering system ng honda.

meron MAG yata na brand "made for Honda" nakasulat
