    03 Honda CR-V - Two PSF questions

    Thanks. I saw that and a few other capacity figures when I did a Google search. At the time I wasn't sure which to believe. It was already answered by another person earlier in this thread, but thank you for your answer/post as well. I'm used to full size American cars. I feel less confident...

    03 Honda CR-V - Two PSF questions

    What (if anything) is the difference between the Genuine Honda PSF with blue lid vs black lid?

    03 Honda CR-V - Two PSF questions

    Actually, I recently studied up on PSF for Honda and we had a thread about it. I want the Genuine Honda (OE) PSF for technical reasons I won't go into here. Genuine Honda OE PSF costs less than Oreilly Master Pro (storebrand) PSF or Prestone PSF, which both claim Honda compatibility, but aren't...

    Asian Blue Coolant

    I don't care if I buy Peak or Zerex Asian Blue. Based on what we've talked about, one is as good as the other, and it's OK to mix them. Pentafrost would be fine too, but no one local carries it. So it's just price, availability, and convenience that decide which of those I buy and from which...

    Really? Those are good prices. I didn't see Zerex at my local NAPA last time. I did see Peak at local NAPA on sale in June and bought a jug. My local Oreilly has Zerex, but not Peak. I bought a jug of Zerex from Oreilly in July. Unfortuneately it was not on sale.

    11 Hyundai Elantra 1.8L engine power steering fluid capacity?

    OK. Thanks guys. That's one less thing to deal with. I went about this backwards. First I verified that Idemitsu PSF is compatible with Hyundai. Idemitsu PSF is compatible with older Hyundai (that are old enough to have hydraulic power steering). I didn't realize that newer Hyundai have...

    11 Hyundai Elantra 1.8L engine power steering fluid capacity?

    I want to completely replace all the PSF in the system with Idemitsu PSF (which I've verified is compatible). Idemitsu PSF comes in 12 oz bottles. How much PSF do I need to buy?

    03 Honda CR-V - Two PSF questions

    I want to replace all PSF fluid in the system with OEM Honda PSF. I don't have an owners manual for it. A Google search is giving me conflicting info. Some sources says 1 quart, others say 2 quarts. I'm guessing I need 1.5 quarts. It's sold in 12 oz bottles, but I can convert qts to oz. Does...

    I also want to thank Trav and others for the excellent coolant related advice in an earlier thread regarding 2EHA in regard to universal coolant for my Buick. I've known the basics about oil for years, but I didn't know much about coolant. What little I did know about coolant was outdated. I...

    For me it's Peak or Zerex. I'll get whichever is lower cost or more convenient to obtain. In my area, NAPA sells Peak. Oreilly sells Zerex. I think Walmart sells both. I'm not aware of any local stores selling Pentafrost, but if they did, I'd be willing to use it if price was right. NAPA &...

    Asian Blue Coolant

    If Supertech Asian Blue is now/currently manufactured by Peak (for Walmarts in all regions of USA) that is a good thing that would mean there's is currently no 2EHA in Supertech Asian Blue in 2025. However, if Walmart changes suppliers in future, I won't know about it because I won't be keeping...

    Correct. You can't know if Prestone has 2EHA or how much. Not knowing is 1 reason not to use it (because Prestone is being evasive on the topic). The fact that it might (and likely does) have 2EHA is a 2nd reason not to use it. Like Nancy Reagon used to tell kids... "Just say no to Prestone".

    I don't know if that ^ info is correct, but I do know that AI is an unrealiable source of info. I have seen multiple instances of Google AI giving incorrect info about topics that I'm an expert on. I would not rely on AI. It's not nearly as smart or as knowledgeable human experts. I'm not an...

    I'm not disagreeing nor arguing with you or Nukeman. I respect and appreciate both of you for your knowledge and helpfulness. Maybe I'm missing something, but I have the following concerns/confusions and questions about Supertech. How can Supertech Asian Blue have one accurate data sheet (see...

    Thanks for resfreshing my memory on that. My memory isn't the best. Also some posts by others in this thread made me wonder. Thank you! Note: I've been having some memory issues, which might be old age, or might be a side effect of my blood pressure med which makes me groggy. Hopefully it's...
