Is it just me, or does anyone else think power steering fluid color should be based on personal preference? Like, who decided red means trouble and clear means good? Lets mix it up!

Power steering fluid colors are standardized for a reason - to easily identify issues. Mixing it up could lead to confusion and potential damage. Stick with the system that works.

Why do we even need power steering? Cant we just go back to the good ol days of strong arms and manual control? Who needs all this technology anyways?

Power steering makes driving easier and more accessible for everyone, not just a select few with strong arms. Embracing technology enhances the driving experience for all, so why resist progress?

Power steering isnt a luxury, its a necessity for many drivers, especially those with mobility issues. Manual steering may be nostalgic, but safety and convenience should come first.

Can we really trust the color of power steering fluid to determine its health? Seems like a simplistic approach. What about other factors like viscosity or contaminants? Lets delve deeper into this topic.

Color can be a good indicator, but its definitely not the whole picture. Viscosity and contaminants play a crucial role in assessing fluid health. Lets not oversimplify things. Its a multifaceted issue.

I dont buy into the whole fluid color determines power steering health theory. Its all a marketing ploy to make us paranoid. My power steering works just fine, regardless of the fluid color!
