going to shop for new fluid

[irondiezl3]

about to go to my fav shop for a power steering flush. did a search i know alot dont like that idea. for the people who do, should i bring my own fluid im assuming they use cheap junk fluid i always use the best for oil tranny brake etc. figure do the same here. or do you think power steering is more simple not like engine oil and it doesnt matter?

doesn't matter... and why pay for it?

1)go to the dollar store, get a turkey baster, and a bowl.
2) get a bottle of Power Steering fluid
3) suck out old, put in new.
4) turn steering wheel back and forth
repeat step 1-4 until fluid looks brand new.

Generic ATF. Doing anything else is like buying a bottle of evian to wash your hands with.

wow r you ready for this, so i get there for appointment. im waiting took car right away. hour goes by im like wow thats a long time for that he was on my car from time i got there till i left. anyway right then he said charlie ur all set. he goes ok that 65 and some change. outloud i started to say what the f*ckkkkkkkk outloud i caught myself at what the. my jaw dropped literally. he started laughing. he goes whats wrong did you think it was a different price. i said alot different i thought it was 29. he goes what like amazed id think that. i said look behind you on your price sheet. power steering fluid service all cars 29. he had nothing to say for about 5 seconds he just stared at it and goes. ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh well you see thats just where we drain it out and fill it back up. you got a actual FLUSH like a coolan flush and coolant drain and fill. used with a machine to pump it all out. now if hes being honest that cool i like that better but, o yea but it doesnt say that anywhere in the shop and secondly tell a customer that when they ask for service on the power steering fluid you know? so he was like ok i see how that could trick someone so here ill bring it down to 40 i said fair enough even tho really it should be 29 thats pretty bad i thought. owell i have new fluid thats pink instead of dark brown/black and didnt have to freeze my yea lol guys LAZY axx off :) idk thought that was a interesting story :)
