power steering fluid change?
My dealer recommended a "fluid exchange" for my Accord. The car has 80,000 miles. I found nothing in the manual about powersteering fluid other than to make sure "it's up to the line" in the reservoir. Do I need to change it or is the dealer trying to sell me something.
Thanks mm |
