Hi
For power steering fluid, the cars manual has 'Total Fluide AT42' as the recommended power steering fluid. This doesn't seem to be available now. The 'Total Fluide AT42' is listed as being GM Dexron III.
Would the following be an equivalent to use to the Total power steering fluid?
Castrol 1848060 17135600 Transmax Dexron III
Granville 0224
Would it be OK to top up with this?
Thanks

I thought mine just had "ATF Dexron II" written on the lid

Ah well, the memory fades, but I knew it had Dexron something on the lid, not this Total Fluide AK47 or whatever it was the book said. Like a lot of t'wife's English text books, it's talking ballcocks.
