Does anyone have factual information on if power steering fluid can be flushed out from ATF to CHF11s; if seal incompatibility an actual issue? It's too risky for me to even consider this given that my vehicle is only a couple of years old and I don't want to pay for parts that need to be replaced after a bad science experiment, especially given that the car isn't fully paid off yet. But I do enjoy asking these kinds of questions, researching them and learning.
There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of info on CHF online. I've only found that people praise it for it's properties, that only aviation grade hydraulic fluid is better than it, and that it's mineral based vs the petroleum derived stocks of ATF. CHF seems to be a clear winner in many aspects, yet I havn't seen anyone take the risk to switch. IF one were to do it, what issues could they experience since the two fluids are so different?
