[diesel_mercedes] Re: Power Steering Flush question...83 300SD

 

Thanks Max...I know about the filter :) I was researching changing out the filter and replacing the fluid when I came across suggestions to do a flush so I thought why not?

Since I'm also replacing the return hose...and I have no idea what the maintenance history on this car is....

Parts were delayed at the mechanics so I may get her back today and try again (P/S flush, fill, replace filter, replace lid gasket, replace return hose) tomorrow.

Fingers crossed...
