I didn't check the PS fluid level when it was warm, only cold. Mabye it will go down when warmed up and I can add the extra fluid.
I know the PS fluid needs a top up as my mechanic advised I would need to do this as there is a leak. The steering groans, and when I turn left there is almost no power assistance. Mechanic said this indicates the fluid is low.
Mechanic also told me it would be about $3000 in parts for new power steering pump and rack not including installation labour. Now, you can understand why I am filling it up every few months instead! This price sound normal?
