    You should stop trying so hard to be a smart ass when you obviously don't know much yourself Einstein. How pray tell would you go about bleeding the power steering system?

          Can't check for stains. The previous proprietor of my parking space drove a W112 diesel converted for vegetable oil. So there's all kinds of good floor artwork at my spot already.

            I'm not going to fight about the smart ass part.

            I'm just going off prior experiences with other cars, but bleeding the power steering on our cars would just involve continually topping off the reservoir and cranking the wheel from lock to lock correct?

              To the OP question, they don't.

              I usually go with the drive, and keep adding fluid method. It doesn't hold much.

              Wat? I don't think KaleCoAuto sells pad fluid. Call them and maybe they'll start carrying it along with that blinker fluid that's definitely dried out by now.
