  3. So i guess i have to replace that power steering pump guys i am also kinda not in favour of putting in additives as you dont really know what all they are doing in there and is it all good or all bad so ill just wait till its nice weather out there get to it till then ill just drive as its very small i havent seen the level in the reservoir go down thanks guys

  6. Hi guys i just noticed that my power steering pump on my 99 es is leaking a little oil i checked the bolt at the bottom and its tight so i guess its the o rings in the pump do i get the power steering kit where i can replace all the rubber o rings or do i have to get another power steering pump or can i try some power steering stop leak additives, and which one might you guys recommend to put in the reservoir to try to stop the leak. Its not easy to get to the pump so i want to try to put in some stop leak and see if it helps.Will it be a good idea? thanks
  7. there is always some coolant remaining in the head so u want to drain the presant coolant and put in the new red coolant in then run the car to hot temp so the thermostat kicks in and opens out the remaing green coolant from the head into the radiator then again flush it and put in new red fluid. HOpe that helps
