V70 - power steering and brake fluids
Folks, I have a '98 Volvo V70 AWD. Have taken couple of days off to do some maintenance work on my car thru this weekend. Have few questions:
- flushing old power-steering fluid and thinking of refilling with Mobil ATF D/M. Is it the right fluid? Manual says Dexron Type ATF
- what quantity would I need? Manual does not mention this.
- flushing brake and clutch fluid and refilling with Dot4 or Dot4+ brake fluid. Pls suggest a brand?
- what quantity would I need? Manual does not mention this.
Thanx! Appreciate your help and time.

RE: V70 - power steering and brake fluids
The trans fluid will be fine. If you are flushing it then I would run about 2 quart through it. So pick up 2 to 3 quarts.
The Brake fluid doesn't really matter about brand. But if it matters to you I use Castrol GTX fluid.
If you are flushing them good then either a couple of the small bottles or one of the big ones.
