   Hi there,
   Just changing my power steering pump as my old one is completely knackered, does anyone know how much fluid i need to buy to refill it?
   Cheers, Dom

   500ml is enough, I wondered the same when I swapped my PAS pump. Bought a litre of fluid and used just under half.

   Just over half a litre. Make sure you bleed the system after you've filled it up.
