Power Steering Fluid?
 
Which type of ATF do you use for the power steering system? Or does it really matter?

Dexron III...
several mfg'ers/packagers make it under
various brand labels.

The BeamER Stlrs I've seen sell "BMW"
brand, and Castrol.

All the same stuff, methinks...DexronIII
is the deal.

If you want to spend a weekend farting
around, use a turkey baster to suck a
bunch out, not getting to the "hole" and
adding fresh...for the A-O bunch, lol!

Thanks for the advice, MD. I've done the "turkey baster method" on all my cars...just wasn't sure what type of fluid to replenish it. I might just make a trip to the dealer just to be safe.
