Power Steering Fluid
 
Hello everyone,

Does anyone here know any other brand of power steering fluid I can use in replacement of MB fluid. It's a 30 minutes drive to the Benz dealer and I don't want to take any chances. There are some fluid left in the reservoir, but none on the dipstick. And also, the harmonic balancer seems a little bit wobbly with the engine running, I wonder should that be a great concern.

Thanks to all in advance.

I believe you can get power steering fluid on this website.
I wonder why your fluid is so low? Leaking Power Steering pump?

Harmonic Balancer wobbly. Yikes, you had better make an appointment
and have it replaced ASAP (serious damage possibility). I understand there is a campaign for this. MB does it under warranty.

I wonder if this is a common problem-I have leaks in my 98 ml320 & clk320, same engines.

There Is A Harmonic Balencer Recall It Takes About 2 Hours To Replace. You Need To Take It In Asap!!!
