power steering fluid

[benworley]

just quickly -

should you ever need to renew this? the level in mines fine, but it makes odd noises from time to time *whining* but the steering still feels fine.

The system needs bleeding!

Do a search or look in the haynes manual if you have one.

To bleed it easy.

Take off the cap, and with the engine running, turn the steering to full lock one way, hold for a couple of seconds, then turn to full lock the other way and again hold for a few seconds.

top up fulid if required and replace cap, job done.
