| My missus focus is low on power steering fluid, us this something I can just top up or does it require emptying completely then refill and bleeding through. I had never touched power steering in my life and haven't a clue.

| Just top it up to the required level (dipstick or level marker) then turn the steering on both full locks twice to make sure any air bubbles or locks have been removed, check the level again andput the cap on when satisfied.
