If you’re like most drivers, you’ve probably been dreading the task of changing your power steering fluid. But thanks to new technology, that job might soon be a thing of the past. In this article, we’ll take a look at two popular power steering systems – Atf and hydraulic – and see which one is best for your car.
What is ATF?
ATF stands for Automatic Transmission Fluid. It is a type of fluid that is used in automatic transmissions. ATF helps to keep the transmission gears moving smoothly.
How to use ATF in your power steering system
If you’re looking to keep your power steering system running smoothly, you’ll want to add ATF to your list of regular maintenance tasks. ATF is a fluid made from synthetic oil and gas-station air. It helps reduce friction and heat in your power steering system, keeping it running at its best.
To add ATF to your power steering system, start by removing the cap on the reservoir. Next, pour the desired amount of ATF into the reservoir. Replace the cap and take note of the level, as you’ll need to replace it every 3 months or when it reaches the top of the inscription.
To use ATF in your power steering system, first make sure that all of your fluids are at their proper levels by checking the dipstick. Add enough fluid until it meets or exceeds the level on the dipstick.
Next, make sure that all of your connections are tight by pulling on each connector and screwing it back in place. If your power steering system is frozen, thaw it out by driving it for a few minutes with the engine off. Repeat these steps for each connection until everything feels snug.
