Pixelfill Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Hi guys, can anyone tell me which fluid I need to put into the Power Steering, Dexron II or Dexron III. I'm under min mark on the PAS reservoir so need to top up but don't know what fluid is in there already, are the two fluids compatible, or am I going to have to do a full flush? I've tried searching and got Alex telling me to use Dexron III and also Alex telling me to use Dexron II. Can anyone give me a quick answer please? thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoffvalenti Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Dexron is downwardly compatible so if the maker specifies Dexron II you can use II, III, IV etc. If the spec is for Dexron III, you'll need III or above. HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prof. Monkey Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Hi, if you look closely on the PAS Cap, it tells you in black which Dextron to use, I use Dextron lll. Its about £6.00 a litre from Halfrauds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelfill Posted February 12, 2006 Author Share Posted February 12, 2006 cheers for the replies guys - I'll check the reservoir cap. I have however just been to Halfrauds for some other bits and bats but couldn't find any Dexron though obviously didn't look hard enough. They didn't have it by the Oils or by the Brake/Clutch fluids either. thanks again Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelfill Posted February 12, 2006 Author Share Posted February 12, 2006 on a completely unrelated topic, any news of Dude Geoff? How are things after Christmas? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prof. Monkey Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Pixelfill, the dextron is on with the brake fluids and is called ATF fluid, same thing as PAS fluid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelfill Posted February 12, 2006 Author Share Posted February 12, 2006 Thats okay then I wasn't being thick - they definitely didn't have any, phew. I was looking for ATF. I'll check another local branch tomorrow. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
