Auto Repair Tips we tested and reverse engineered over 30 fluids before developing our own formula. There is so much information that just couldn’t be communicated in a typed message but I don’t mind going over data sheets if you are a hydraulic geek like me over the phone. As far as thermal breakdown, you can see the video I’m about to do addressing heat ranges and synthetics but the jist of that answer is thermal breakdown should NEVER be something to really consider when talking power steering fluid because MAX REDLINE temps for any metal on metal vein design pump should NEVER exceed 180 degrees. That’s when the veins start to melt and cause metal transfer between parts and self district. Fluids claiming thermal protection above those temps are just marketing when in a power steering fluid application however our fluid does resists thermal breakdown exceeding 300 degrees so the fluid may take the heat but the pump will never survive.

Pentosin is good stuff, I have read about people comparing it to aviation hydraulic fluid both in price and performance. CHF 202 will still pour at -65 degrees Fahrenheit. At those temperatures most other types of fluids will freeze or thicken.

Charles Hines I’ve not tested the CHF but I believe it to be good fluid quality because I’ve never had someone tell me they use it and have troubles like so many other fluids!

@@Steeringproshop Although it is considerably more expensive than other fluids even ATF some people have switched their car over to it and said positive things. What I would do is keep some of the fluid that you used to use around just in case the switch causes a problem. This way you can change it back if for some reason it caused a problem. Other fluids that are used in place of CHF 11S and 202 are Febi Bilstein 06161 for 11S and there is 46161 for 202 but good luck finding a reasonable price to get that one in the USA. A lot of eBay sellers who have it list insane shipping fees. These sellers are usually overseas some place. The fluids used in our cars are easily distinguished by a green dye. I am not sure if the green color for it came about because of some sort of German regulation or to help people tell that the leak is the power steering and not the transmission. There is a ZF transmission fluid that is also green as if there is not enough confusion for some people already.

TheBegoing cavitation, and aeration, is often cause by fluid frictions, heat spots and other environments you can’t see inside the system like hard 90 degree fluid directional changes not to mention sloshing reservoirs. Bleeding the air from the system is a best practice of course but quality of fluid is just as important. That’s why anti foaming agent is added and my fluid has twice as much anti foaming agent than any other fluid on the market! Best practices, ideal environment, and quality fluid are all factors of a good health steering system! I give a 1 year standard warranty for my products, not the industry standard of 90 days and if you purchase my fluid (ensuring my products are in the best environment possible) I DOUBLE that warranty to 2 full years!

I don’t know the ins and outs , but we had an issue getting an AGR box through 4wp. We ended up deleting the order and up using Howe Performance steering. I had no idea it was local to me. Amazing service. I’ve done a couple systems at this point and can’t think of going anywhere else.
