The 2001 Corolla has a power steering fluid leak at the pump housing.
It uses Dexron III ATF. So should I use a Transmission Leak Sealer that is compatible with Dexron III?

Thanks in advance.
 
The only good luck I've had with power steering stop leak is (I know....) Lucas Power Steering Fix. It seems pretty similar to their ATF fix also, don't know what is in it but I've fixed a few leaking problems such as gear box lower seals and whatnot.
 
I like Maxlife transmission fluid stop leak as well. It is a red bottle with a yellow cap. Fluid is red and does not smell like solvent like some stop leak products. It actually smells like ATF.
 
I have had good results with Radiator Specialty products, i.e. Gunk and Soldier Seal for this type of thing. But it can be hard to find them, since they are not widely carried.
