Default Topping up power steering fluid
What should I use on a 94 impreza to do this? I assume its just a case of locating the power steering reservoir and topping up to correct level!? Oddly enough its something I've never had to do before!

Thanks in advanced

Dave

Yep, the resevoir is on top of the pump, just left of the alternator at front of engine.

Use dextron 3 and once full give it a drive and do a few lock to lock manouvres and then recheck level.

They do sell it http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/s...egoryId_165750

Dextron 3 is a specification, not a brand, sorry to confuse!
