changing power steering fluid

This one would be better, http://www.penriteoil.com.au/pis_pdf...ust%202012.pdf it's closer in viscosity to the PAS fluid and any fluid that meets CAT's TO4 spec is a more advanced oil that shows lower wear levels than one that meets their TO2 spec..

And this is Penrites specific ACE fluid which would be a little better than the above two when the ambient starts to drop as it's a semi-syn with a much higher viscosity index (VI) than the CAT or tactor fluids.

Thanks
The latter PAS fluid is $35.00/ ltr :mad:
Thought that UTTO would be a way cheaper alternative.

Remind us - what is the service interval on the ACE/PAS fluid?

Point taken I guess, but wouldn't it be good for just one oil to all drivetrain etc.

I wouldn't use a UTTO or C4 oil anywhere else on a Landy, they are really for relatively highly loaded, low speed gears and not a high enough viscosity for the diffs or t/case in our cars, although a case could be made for an R380 g/box.

Usually only available in 20l drums too.

Motofluid always charge full retail and are listing the PAS at $26.30 per litre. Last time I checked Autobarn were charging the same.

to change the PS fluid why not run a clear plastic tube from bleeder valve into container and run engine while topping up until clean fluid appears?

I used this when fluid was only warm.

I've been doing it this way since I bought the Disco for my PAS and ACE.

A bit worried if I change it all I might make it leak... :)

A bottle of Penrite PAS does a few changes..
