Skoda Octavia Power Steering Fluid
« on: 16 October 2012, 17:26:25 »
Got a Skoda Octavia 1.9 TDI on a 54 plate ready to be picked up by a customer this evening. Now a friend of mine is supposed to be putting in some power steering fluid as it's low. Anyone know where it's located? The car isn't with me, and I've got a meeting this evening. The wally swears blind (excuse the pun) that he can't see where to put it. Anyone?

Well according to the guy who serviced the car before it was collected from the garage, he reckons it was low? However if it is electromechanical that would explain why he can't see anything  ::). Only picked it up this morning so I haven't really had a chance to look around it.

The garage didn't have any in stock apparently, all sorted now, car sold :).

Thanks for letting me know where though, I'll know if I get another  :y :y :y.
