Go to Woolworths, aisle 13, powersteering and other assorted fluids (excluding bodily). :roll:

Just let your fingers do the walking I say.



















Failing that..... you COULD at a push try Repco.

if it is only 30mls, don't worry about it.

normally available from 250ml bottles upwards.

Have you tried actually going to Repco to look for yourself? I know it seems a silly idea, but just try it :roll:

If you're low on PS fluid, you may want to investigate why.

And you probably shouldn't go looking for a bottle of power steering fluid since its actually ATF (Auto Trans Fluid). Probably have to buy about a litre of it, not sure if it comes in smaller bottle. Failing that you could pop into a garage and ask them to top it up for you

Repco have it and have it labelled as PS fluid, but you will wind up spending on 250ml or so as a minimum. I still have some from when I was topping mine up constantly.

It is the same as AT Trans fluid but its not hard to find.
