Can i use automatic transmission fluid to put in my power steering?
Hi, i am about to do all the fluids change on my automatic nisssan maxima 2001 and i saw that some people use transmission fluid in their power steering. I was wondering if it would be better to use real power steering fluid? or would the transmission fluid would to the same job? is there one that will last longer? is there one that will work better or is it the same thing?

Power steering went out after putting Atf in it.
A mechanic friend of mine put ATF in my power steering because it was leaking and I didn't have time that day to get hose replaced. After about 2 miles I lost all power steering. Please help. I don't know what is going on.

ATF had nothing to do with it. either all the fluid leaked out and you lost power steering, the pump is bad, or the serpentine belt broke off
