    Question Power Steering Fluid

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Trying to get ahead of maintenance and a power steering fluid 'flush' is on the list. From what I see, there doesn't seem to be a consensus on which fluid is needed.

    OEM - was G2, but now G4
    FCP Euro - CHF11S
    ECS Tuning - CHF202 (which I think supersedes and can be mixed with 11S??)
    Rockauto - Lists both 11S and 202
    GermanOEM - Fuchs Titan ZH 3044 and G4
    Germanparts.ca - Fuchs Titan ZH 3044

    I picked up some of the Titan ZH 3044 as it was local and did a syringe extract / refill. It seemed to be more watery and less green than OEM G4. Anyone use it?
    Steering also feels heavier than before but that could be in my head.

    Anyway - wonder if folks know for sure which to use? I'll probably replace the Titan fluid ASAP just in case.

    I used chf 11s, that's what I could figure from my research. I didn't do a full on flush but did the best I could disconnecting the line and quickly turning the car on and filling in with new fluid.

    That was 40k ago or so. No issues.

    Thanks guys.

    Did more digging and I think 2006+ is supposed to be 202, and 2005 and lower is 11S. Though they are interchangeable, just slightly different spec. Guess either or is fine.
