Power Steering Question.

[neiluk]

Hi all,

I've just checked my power steering fluid level with a cold engine and it is a good inch above the maximum for that temperature. It's been like this since I bought my Gal a few months ago and I've never had any problems with the steering with the level so high, so should I just leave it as it is or get the wifes turkey baster and suck out the excess?

 

Is the high level likely to cause any damage like a very high engine oil level could?

 

I wish they made the engine oil this accessable :ph34r:

 

Thanks,

 

Neil.

Even though it's higher than the level mark - that may just be a guideline.

 

My feeling is don't mess with something that works ok. If the high level was a problem I think it would have done some damage by now.
