Anyone know when we should be changing this stuff? My MINI is coming up on it's 3rd year and I've never changed that Hyd. Fluid.
Also, never had to take it in for Power steering issues, so it's still the same stuff since new.

thanks in advance.

 

Anyone???

 

The MINI uses Pentosin CH-11 synthetic power steering fluid. The stuff should be rather long lasting. If you decide to change it, make sure to only use that fluid (you can get it from the dealer) as 'regular' fluid is essentially too thick for the system and may damage the pump.

 

Thanks for the info. Greatbear. Guess I'll leave it alone for the time being.

Hey, I could not remember which thread I was going to get back to you on regarding the Spark Plugs. Anyway, I checked them after 25,000 miles and they looked the same if not better than the original set. I'll change em in another couple months maybe. They cost alot.
