#144 of 165 '08 Camry SE 4 cyl power steering by 19bill56 Jan 04, 2009 (5:35 am)
I want to drain the power steering fluid and re-fill with Mobil 1 ATF. Am I able to do this at the PS pump? If so, at what place on the pump?

Replying to: 19bill56 (Jan 04, 2009 5:35 am) Suck it out of the reservoir, or disconnect where the reservoir hose connects to the pump. But the bigger question is WHY would you want to do this?

Replying to: 19bill56 (Jan 04, 2009 5:35 am) Yes, WHY...?? And why ATF unless that is what the factory uses/recommends. Replies to this message: 19bill56 (Jan 04, 2009 7:52 pm)

Replying to: kiawah (Jan 04, 2009 6:42 am) power steering fluid is ATF anyway, so why not use a superior fluid like Mobil 1? I guess the theory is, like Mobil 1 motor oil, there's less wear on parts, which means longer service life for the component it's used in.

Replying to: 19bill56 (Jan 04, 2009 4:27 pm) There's little likelihood of any parts failure that would be affected by the change in power steering fluid. How long do you plan to own this car, anyway? Replies to this message: 19bill56 (Jan 04, 2009 7:46 pm)

Replying to: 210delray (Jan 04, 2009 6:09 pm) Until it isn't feasible to keep pouring money into it because of its age. I've always had good luck with the pre-owned vehicles I've had over the years, but I decided that I wanted at least 1 new car. You know, for that new car smell, the warranty, peace of mind, technological advancements, etc. I did keep the old car to use for going to work, throwing lumber and tools in it without having to care about scratches or dents. Another benefit of keeping the old car is that after having the Camry for a year now, it has only 5K miles on it.

Replying to: wwest (Jan 04, 2009 7:25 am) That's what Toyota has in the system from the factory. In the owners manual, it says if you need to add fluid to the reservoir, use a DEXRON II or III ATF.

Replying to: barkins (May 14, 2008 2:04 pm) I have a similar problem with my 2009 Camry LE, purchased in later October '08. Noticed the first week that the driver's seat intermittently seems to move while in driving. The movement can be in any direction, but primarily seems to occur during turns (moves side-to-side) or at freeways speeds moves vertically) over the crest of a hill. As mentioned, this is an intermittent problem. It actually stopped happening for appox. 3 weeks at one point, then started up again. I took it in to the dealer this morning. After the tech looked it over, the Service rep told me that the seat was bolted down correctly, that the rail in electric seats has a certain amount of play in it, and this was what I've been experiencing. I've never experienced this particular sort of "play" with an electric seat before, and told him so. He suggested that when I bring the car in for it's first service in the next couple of months, that we arrange to have a Toyota field engineer look at it. If this is still bugging me at that time, then that's what I'll do. Jim Replies to this message: mcdawgg (Jan 20, 2009 5:01 pm)
