    Power Steering fluid

    I believe it's just evaporation as I don't see any leaks. I was in Maine at the time when I posted the question, now in NY so I didn't have a dealership to get OEM PS fluid. Needed fluid promptly since I was about to do a 475 mile drive so I went to Autozone and bought Prestone specifically...

    Power Steering fluid

    All of you gave great advice when I was in the process of draining/refilling my transmission fluid. I have a 2002 Acura TL sType and power steering fluid is low. Does it matter the brand/type I put in to fill it up to the correct line?

    Thank you!!! Yes, the part you posted is the one that's being sold at O'Reilly's. Autozone is offering one from Duralast for half the price. Is the Wix brand a higher quality brand?

    Arrggh I had a snag happen in my ordering. I successfully received the ATF by Honda, the red bottled fluid Lubegard ATV synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid suggested earlier, BUT the genuine Honda filter for the transmission got lost somewhere out there and wasn't delivered from Amazon.

    Tom if I'm understanding you correctly you're saying it's important to use to OEM transmission fluid made by Honda/Acura?

    Transmission drain and fill for 2002 Acura TL sType

    All you wonderful members are very patient with me, thank you!!! Do I need to change the filter each time I drain and refill the transmission fluid? I know that might be a very naive question but I gotta ask it. I don't know if it's different than changing oil that requires a new filter each time?

    Transmission drain and fill for 2002 Acura TL sType

    I have an '02 Acura TL sType with 205000 miles. I've tried to be very good at changing my ATF every 30k BUT I am not certain that mechanics have used the Honda DW1 fluid in the past. It will this time as I've just ordered 6 qts to take with me to my mechanic.
