Power Steering woes
After driving today, I started to notice a discrete whine. Under inspection I found it to be the power steering, so I looked into the reservoir and noticed it was quite low. But found no leaks or any reason for it to be low, which is good.. So I am hoping to just pour some more fluid in and pray that it is okay. But I need to ask what kind of fluid does it take? I checked the manual and it just said GM of course, but I just change the trans fluid and wonder if that ATF will work for the Z06's? Some power steering units can use ATF and I was wondering if it would work for our cars also. Thanks.
