Tints postponed. Still, loving the a/c revival.

I'd only use genuine. It's not expensive, how do know its low? Is it whining? The dipstick in the resoviour isn't like an oil dip-stick. As long as at least the tip is wet, should be fine. Just don't over-fill it. It will leak out when the pressure rises and make a nice little mess

If you were in Sydney, I'd give you the bottle I bought to top mine up, but never needed to use it! Bought it from HSY, maybe like about $17 off the top of my head. Genuine would only be a couple of dollars more at the most, easy enough to just get it from them like Lito said..

Yeah I bit of a whine at full lock in reverse. The tip is wet but well below the min mark. How much driving can it do like this

Havent checked my levels but my wheel is fairly hard to turn at low-speeds. I know it's awd so the steering will be a bit more heavier but I'd usually associate heavy steering with low power steering fluid.

Might have to borrow that bottle soon mate!

Maybe it can be the VW Vic division community fluid.

Swapped the bora for a 6r tdi DSG polo for the day while its having a new timing belt, water pump, tensioner (or tensioner bearing? I forget) and coolant flush with the boys at Volkwerke.
Its a bit sad this is the second time iv done it, 60k km on the clock when I got it, now 226k km. never skipped a beat though

I my 8v
