I came here to find information for this thread:
- How can we clean out a clogged oil dipstick tube (connection to CCV)?
But ... regarding your question ...
I know there are two schools of thought on 'where' the PS fluid mists out ...
One is the vent hole ... but ... the other is the o-ring under the cap of the power steering fluid reservoir.
So, I must ask: When was that power-steering fluid reservoir cap o ring last replaced?
