So, I have a leak near the input shaft of my steering rack. I was going to add AT-205 and then top off with fluid.
However, it is my experience that ATF fluid that our 100s call for is red/pink. The fluid leaking is NOT red. It looks like the PO may have used regular power steering fluid instead of ATF. He took meticulous maintenance notes and I have his log, but there's no mention of the power steering ever being serviced.
Photo is of the fluid leaking from steering and dark motor oil from the dipstick with about 5k miles on it for comparison.
Any thoughts?
