Power steering fluid?
Ok, is there a differnce in fluids? All I see at the local parts store is generic fluid or stop leak. Does it matter? I don't have a cooler so I didn't know if a special fluid would be better or even a synthetic trans fluid or something.
Thanks

GM power steering fluid. It's the best out there and available at every dealer.

Yes, there's a difference: Advance Auto generic brand: loss of power steering on hot days and a hot car. Mobil 1 synthetic fluid: no power steering problems.
I'm sure the GM stuff is high quality too.

What's the difference between trans and power steering fluids? Even the synthetic types?
