Power Steering Fluid: Description and Operation
FLUID
DESCRIPTION
The recommended fluid for the power steering system is Mopar Power Steering fluid + 4 or Mopar ATF+4 Automatic Transmission Fluid. Both
Fluids have the same material standard specifications (MS-9602).
Mopar ATF+4 (and Mopar Power Steering fluid + 4), when new, is red in color. ATF+4 is dyed red so it can be identified from other fluids used in
the vehicle such as engine oil or antifreeze. The red color is not permanent and is not an indicator of fluid condition. As the vehicle is driven, ATF+4
will begin to look darker in color and may eventually become brown. THIS IS NORMAL. ATF+4 also has a unique odor that may change with age.
Consequently, odor and color cannot be used to indicate the fluid condition or the need for a fluid change.
