Flush and bleed power steering system
How do I bleed the power steering? The lines to the oil reservoir were replaced and I think they put in the wrong oil. Is the stuff they sell at autozone for example the same as the oil sold at the audi dealership? If its anything like the coolant requirement I'm guessing no.
Start with filling the reservoir with Pentison 11S. Get the front wheels off the ground and turn the steering wheel back and forth from lock to lock 3 or 4 times. Check the fluid level again and top it off if needed. Then start the engine and do the same procedure till all air bubbles and pump groaning go away and check fluid level again. At this point you should check for leaks and you should be good to go. Take it for a ride and check fluid level for the last time.
Good Luck.
Good Luck.
Sorry guys I messed up. I meant FLUSH the entire system. How about disconnecting the return line to the reservoir and fill with new fluid at the same time?
