Hyundai power steering fluid?

[Brian Miller_dup1]

I have a question. We have a 2003 Hyundai Santa Fe. In the manual, it calls for PSF-3. Is this the same thing as regular PSF that I can get at any autoparts store? I looked at all the bottles, and none of them mention anything about PSF-3.

My Hyundai uses special SP III ATF fluid that I have to get at the dealer. Could this PSF be the same?

Also, the fluid that is in there from the factory is kind of a pinkish color. Like a 50/50 mix of ATF and PSF? I think that it's probably just dyed that color.

I wanted to do the turkey baster change out, but am unsure of what fluid to use.

Thanks for the help,
Brian

I drained my Hundyi Trans & PS out at 10000 miles. Put in AMSOIL UTF in the Tranny and the Valvoline PSF in the PSP. We have 20000 now no useage and operation is flawless. I didn't hesitate at doing it with the 03 Camry either.

I used the Valvoline Synpower power steering fluid in my '02 Accent. Works great!

I saw a chart that shows PSF-3 xreferencing with DexronII. Nothing special here.
You could use almost any PS fluid or ATF.

For the ATF, multivehicle fluids and ATF+3 can also be used.
