Default More problems...quick Q

Well, after replacing the tensioner pulley and a busted belt, my power steering started to whine. I'm thinking when the belt busted, it knocked a hose loose or something(I haven't crawled under to check). I opened the resovoir to check the fluid level and to my amazement, I could see the bottom. This is my daily driver so I had no choice but to use some Prestone power steering fluid I had at home(last night). After searching the forums(today), I found out that I'm suppose to use a mineral based fluid(dealer item). Now, my quick question is, will I be fine with the fluid I used or should I drain it out and replace with the correct fluid?

Did an online search on the fluid I used and it says "ALL VEHICLE EXCEPT HONDA"

Is that good or bad? I've heard that hondas and audi use the same stuff....[sm=WTFsgign.gif]
