    Mixed Brake Fluid with Power Steering!

    Today by mistake I poured in like a spoon full of brake fluid into my power steering reservoir. I didn't start the car, took out my oil extractor and emptied the reservoir. Tomorrow I will buy some more power steering fluid, fill the reservoir up and empty it again just to be safe.

    What do you guys think? Should I be okay, I'm scared

    From my understanding you should be fine. When power steering fluid is put into brakes, then you need to worry. Extraction and flush should be ok.

    Since you didn’t start the car then you are good, give the reservoir a second flush to be 100% sure.
