    Power Steering Fluid?

    Think I finally found the source of the oil/fluid leak in the Vento, was originally diagnosed as a auto transmission fluid leak (and it is coming from roughly that area) but now believe it is power steering fluid (the power steering fluid reservoir is dry and leak appears to have stopped) but yet to be able to confirm the exact location of where the leak is coming from.

    Does anybody know which power steering fluid the Mk3s use?
    1997 Golf CL, 2011 Caddy Life TDI, 2007 Golf TDI, 1996 Vento GL (red), 2008 Skoda Octavia TDI
    1996 Vento GL (white) - RIP
