Dark red, and a friend of mine told me to use Honda fluid in it when I replace it, I siphoned some out and put a bit of Honda fluid it but the Honda fluid is clear, is this a problem? And what kind of fluid should I use? He said the Honda fluid lubricates the system better than a generic multipurpose fluid. Its probly 1/2 Honda fluid now mixed with the old fluid.
  • Power steering fluid keeps going below minimum level in my 2015 Honda Pilot? Hi, I drive a 2015 Honda Pilot which I bought in June of this year. Since then, I've had to refill power steering fluid 3 times because it falls below minimum level after a short period. I have not seen any fluid drops on the ground. I will bring the car to the dealership but is there anything I can do besides refilling the fluid again, so I don't have to make tbe trip to the dealership?

  • How much (and how quickly) will running appliances on my Honda Ridgeline's power outlet drain my battery? I'm looking into using two speakers that use around a total of 800-900W for about 2-3 hours. They will be plugged into a 120W adapter from my 12V power outlet in my 2007 Honda Ridgeline. If the vehicle is off and running this then how long will the battery last? Would it work if the engine was on? I'd love to see a formula as to how to equate this, but I have no clue what it would be.
