Hi,

I have 1998 mazda protege automatic, I saw that the power steering fluid is slightly below the minimum level. I dont have the owners manual for this car.
Can you guys suggest me which fluid should I use to top it off? ATF or power steering fluid?

Thank you!

 

Dexron II ATF.
According to the Haynes manual.

 

Thank you!
Is it the same for transmission fluid in this car?

 

..Yes.

 

I've changed all my cars power steering fluid to Mobil 1 synthetic transmission fluid.
With car off use a big syringe and suck out the power steering reservoir. Replace with transmission fluid. Do this about 3 times after driving the car a few miles between each fluid change.

 

Thank you

 

i was just going to top up but i think ill do the same thing as you suggested. Thank you!

 

I could not find Dex ii , would this work? It says it is compatible with Dwx ii
Valvoline/1 qt. MaxLife Dex/Merc automatic transmission fluid

 

Yes, I would not hesitate using this.
