Hello, thought I would post some info about power steering fluid since I just went through dropping my sub frame which required disconnecting the steering rack and draining all of the PS fluid.
On my power steering reservoir it is marked ATF Oil Only.
So I went to an import parts store and got some German Auto Trans fluid.
However, when I went to put it in it was red in color. The fluid that drained out during my sub frame drop was amber in color. So with a little research here's what I found.
There is a type of ATF fluid that is made by Pentosin. It is called Pentosin ATF1 and is amber in color.
Pentosin - Transmission Fluid
If you are needing to change your PS fluid and the reservoir says ATF Oil only and the fluid is amber than this is what you need.
Hope this helps someone.
