My car started making a moaning sound in the mornings when i make a turn, the sound goes away after the car warms up...

I just noticed today my power steering level is below minimum! Reading the previous threads I understand I should flush the power steering fluid ?? Or is it OK just to add some more fluid??

I'm gonna use Pentosin CHF-11S fluid. How many liters do I need to flush the whole system??

P.S. I was able to find these at $13.75/liter at www.germanautoparts.com. Is this a reasonable price??

Cheers

You dont have to flush it but you can if you want to.

If you drain and fill it, you have to bleed it.

Make sure the wheels are facing foward and fill the tank until its in the marks. Lift the front wheels off the ground and turn the wheel lock to lock ten times. Cehck the fluid and top off.
Lower the car and give the wheel a good turn from lock to lock ten times again. Check the fluid.

(0.7-0.9 liters)

you probably have a leak on the return line from the reservoir, I put another clamp there
