Hello! So I am trying to add some power steering fluid to my mother's Kia Optima, but I am having trouble getting solid information on which PSF to use in the car. Auto-zone has told me "any power steering fluid will do". Some people on website forums have said the same thing. Then there are others on these forums that say "NO, you have to use the greenish PSF-4 which is only found at dealerships, or else you will have problems with the car in the future." Can someone clarify some truth behind this issue.
