Recommended Power Steering Fluids

Power Steering Fluid does not have an API (American Petroleum Institute) certification, and therefore does not have minimum standards associated with its production. The only standard established for Power Steering Fluid comes from the OEM. Use an OE recommended or equivalent fluid for both complete system replacement and top-offs.

The following conventional fluids have undergone independent lab testing to determine lubricating qualities and additive packages.

This list is only for systems that specify power steering fluid. All claims by fluid manufacturers regarding use in all makes/all models cannot be substantiated. For best results, always follow the OE specified fluid type.
