Fluid type: Volvo power steering fluid or equivalent.
During warm weather, Valvoline power steering fluid is recommended for the Buick rendezvous. In cold weather climates, Red line power steering fluid is recommended.
If I was to recommend using auto tranny fluid in the power steering systems in falcons, i'd suggest using Valvoline Type "D". It's what we always use in Ford Falcons, if we have to replace either just the fluid or rack, etc. It would be ok to top them up with Valvoline Dextron 3 if you had to.

You will find the the right one in ur owner Manuel, mine is Volvo s80 and the recommended fluid was not power steering oil it was ATF automatic transmission fluid, when I asked about that at orally they said if u use power steering fluid it will rewind ur power steering system.
Use a fluid such as Pyroil (Valvoline). Just look for a fluid that says it is formalated for a GM vehicle. Do not use a ATF such as Dexron.Use a fluid such as Pyroil (Valvoline). Just look for a fluid that says it is formalated for a GM vehicle. Do not use a ATF such as Dexron.

The reservoir is build into a power pump, twist off the cap.
Very, very slowly. If level is dropping, look for a leak.
Read the owners manual. It has that information.
