    I have access to 3 different types of PS fluid....

    Meyle, Febi-Bilstein and Pentosin. Anybody have experience with the first 2? Of the 3 listed which one has given any of you good results? They are all within each others price range so that does not matter. I'm just looking for quality PS fluid. I understand that Meyle is the fluid of choice of Mercedes Benz. True?

    I use Febi for 5 years. No problems with pump or steering rack.

    It's not the fluid manufacturer, but the product makes difference.

    If you will use FeBi ATF (Dextron) instead of FeBi 6162 for example - you can ruin your hydraulic system. No matter what color these fluids will be. It's like the motor oil, you need to use engine oil for engine, transmission oil for transmission, etc.

      Think the Febi one is the one i use, G002000.
      Its the one supplied by German & Swedish over here, is factory spec so does the job.

        Pentosin

        As an MB tech (soon to be a Porsche tech ) I have been using the Mercedes-Benz fluid in my Audis since 2000. The fluid was first used in the ABC suspension equipped vehicles. I have had no problems whatsoever and the price is comparable to other brands. My price has been even better.
