Power Steering Oil Leak

[sudesh_chandimal]

Having a problem of Power Steering Oil leak , acctually i didn't notice it. Garage guy once told me replace it after some time. But new its working fine, no any problem in steering and also i couldn't notice that leakage still. If it's a real problem do i need to replace it...? can i find a brand new or else go for another recondition one..? How can i notice it..

for starters if there's a leak you can easily spot it cos the oil reservoir level should drop. and also you can see the oil marks on your garage floor when you keep the car parked...

if the you don't have a clean garage floor a good way to spot leaks is to spread a few newspapers on the floor under the front of the car....

this ways possible leaks show up much easily...

another good way is to take the car to a service station...hoist it up and do an inspection

before getting to replace anything first find out whether there's a problem
