Power Steering Fluid

[dubzter]

Does anybody know if you have to use VW fluid or can you just use normal. the haynes manual say you must use VW......why?

Anyway burst one of the hoses and am in the process of fixing that, don't want to wreck anything else by putting the wrong fluid in.

It's a 96 polo 1.9d cl

if in doubt use VW.
it can't cost that much more than any other brand.
