Anyone have any experice with this? Is it good, bad, or no difference to the stock steering fluid?

Who makes the stock steering fluid by the way and what are the specs?

Very useful, thanks.



Anyone have any real life experience & an opinion on this fluid?

I think our cars use Pentosin HFC 11S, and don't see it mentioned there at all . Why do you want to change it? How many miles on your car?

Not that many miles on the car (30,000km), but since I am ordering some ss lines, pads, brake fluid etc I thought of adding in the order the Red Line steering fluid as well. If it is a waste of money I won't do it - I just read the description and sounds interesting. Its like going in the supermarket for specific things and ending up with a few more "nice to have" items!!
