Power Sterring fluid

I have a 2003 2.7T A6. What kind of power steering fluid does it use? The owners manual does not specify.

I have a 2000 1.8t a4, I don't know too. But I have noticed that it's color is yellow, not the usual kind put in most cars.

It is not the usual kind in most cars. Audi uses a mineral oil based fluid.
I believe the brand is Pentosin, CHF 11S

Yep it's Pentosin CH 11S. There is no substitute. Other regular brands will ruin the seals in your steering rack.
