    Exclamation engine oil in powersteering ???

    hi guys i have a 97 vs v6 auto and the other day i was out and about when i suffered a bad powersteering leak the only fluid i had in the boot was engine oil i had no choice so i filled the powersteering up with it there was still about 1 cm of powersteering fluid left in the bottom of the resovoir when i added the engine oil; it seems to drive fine maybe just a little heavier when u turn corners im just wondering if it will cause any dramas cheers muzza

    Hey dude,

    Just let it drain out and re fill it back up with power steering fluid should be fine! But if that doesnt work see ure mechanic as he will drain the power steering fluid and re fill it! Also do you know how i can take out the original stereo head unit in a vs??

    cheers
