Question

Will any old power steering fluid do or is there a "special" impreza owner wallet emptying version out there?

18mths to be precise

It's not so much playing up, just annoyingly loud, especially after a bit of a blast. Steering wheel feels like there is back pressure on it and it vibrates at low speed. Not bad vibrations, just like the vibrations that you get if you are holding a rasor or similar ( ) all this is accompanied by a low pitched whine.

No problems on the move though. Checked the resovoir and it's a bit low!
