Power Steering Fluid

[Ray J]

The owner's manual naturally says to use a Mopar part number due to its "minimum effect" on rubber hoses. It also says not to use ATF.

The Amsoil universal synthetic ATF states that it is also good for power steering. Is anyone using it in their PS?

Although people are using Amsoil ATF in the PS, even Amsoil doesn't recommend it. Use Valvoline semi-synthetic.

Thanks Illflem. I didn't realize that Amsoil also didn't recommend it. Glad I asked ahead of time.
