Power Steering Fluid Confusion
 
I have noticed that my fluid level has dropped slightly and I was going to top it up ,The tope of the cap says Mineral Oil only ,so I done a search and found the Green mineral Oil ,but when I entered my reg number in eurocarparts it came back with Green synthetic Oil. Do I follow the cap instructions or go with the synthetic...I dont want to screw up my rack ..anyone help ?

I got 3 bottles from my local Audi dealer when I did the power steering fluid change. From memory it was something like £8 per bottle.
Unless its a huge price difference just get a bottle from Audi and have peace of mind.

Believe the cap. All hail the hallowed cap. How shall we serve you hallowed cap? Shall we do what it says?
