I'm one of the many folks whose searching for PSF-3 power steering fluid. Of course the dealer wants to sell me the "new" PSF-4 for $11 per 12 ounce bottle. Good gravy .. that's liquid gold!!
One of the things I hate is to say, "Oh no .. you have to use the X fluid made by your car's manufacturer."

So I did more research about PSF-3. Of course there's PSF-4, the next generation of power steering after PSF-3.

Of course .. here's the Hyundai Part Number of PSF-4
Hyundai Part 00232-06010

So follow me .......

Here's the MSDS data sheets for the fluids that Hyundai uses

Search for the part number of the PSF-4 = Hyundai Part 00232-06010

You'll find it .. and here's the MSDS on the PSF-4 fluid. Check out who makes PSF-4. VALVOLINE! AH HA!!

What do you think?

Can the "off the shelf" valvoline PSF fluid work?

Yep, it's just plain old "Power Steering" fluid off the shelf. Put it this way, my '99 owners manual says:

ATF Dexron II or PSF-III
