    Powersteering failed

    Hello I been an owner of my 95 gti vr6 for about a yr now. Love the car but yesterday i was a little low on ps fluid and so i called a local parts place and they said i could put this behdayl ps fluid in and it meets all specifications. so i put the fluid in and it ran fine all night. woke up next morning and i had no power steering. looked in my resivoir and the fluid turned to this metally grey color. and is bubbling. any ideas what could be wrong???

    Actually I flushed my system with $75 of vw ps fluid then put new stuff in an she steers better than ever, so never put any thing but vw ps fluid or chf11s or it'll mess up your ps badly and you will end up paying for it.

    Correct, some people tend to not believe the hype and throw regular fluid in.How did u get 75 bux? Pentosin chf11.7 is like 20 bux a can at napa.
