i must say it is not recommended by any car manufacture

power steering oil is oil based

coolant is water based

it may do some damage to ur engine later on.. ohmy.gif

why u did that?

iinm coolant is water based so that it can easily disperse out heat..

It was a mistake...lol...not intentional..now it has white gunk like substance.... the temp didn't go up when driving from Penang to Melaka lol...only realised it after drive long journey this morning then quickly send my car to flush.

reallly do full flushing multiple times..pour new coolant and let engine run and drain it..send radiator to radiator shop to clean any clogged...

pour new coolant again...i think you good to go..
