Default overfill of power steering fluid....

went over the max mark by about 4mm - will this cause any problems?

Default you're fine...

it's a reservoir, so basically a holding tank that really isn't affected by slightly overfilling.

If you're worried though get a turkey baister and suck a lil out.

Thanks

after over filling it, i took it for a 45min drive to heat up the fluid to see how far it would xpand in the resevoir.

After driving checked it and its about 2cm over the max mark when hot
