RE: power steering fluid type
Hey Tech-
I've got a 99 S70 GLT (AWD) w/ 117K miles and the power steering fluid is low. You said above to get a decent synthetic power steering fluid. What kind would be decent and do you know what parts stores might carry it? Also, I'm looking to replace the shocks. Do you have any suggestions on type and price? Lastly, what kind of tune up (other than oil change) would you recommend to keep the car running well?
Thanks for your help

I'm reviving this old thread.
I have a 98 V70 2wd no turbo. My owners manual is MIA.
I checked the PS the other day and noticed it is down, but not empty.
I'd like to top it up, but am confused by what it should take?
It looks brownish/red in colour. I do not recall ever adding PS fluid to this car, I'm not the original owner.
