It has ben my experience that when the steering fluid is low, I can hear a difference in the pump from the drivers seat while turning the wheel. I can also see tiny air bubbles in the little bit of fluid left in the reservoir (that's called cavitation, I think) > do any of the things i mentioned above have any bearing > on steering fluid loss/consumption? (my fluid levels were getting low for a > while also and we suspected a leak there, but none were found) I don't think steering fluid can be consumed, if the reservoir is low it should be dropping somewhere, or running back on the underbody Andy
