Depending on car and specified fluid to be used. Most vehicles won't have a problem with it as both are a hydraulic fluid. Some vehicles specify to use trany fluid in the Power Steering. Check your owners manual or with the dealer to be sure. I did that for about 6 weeks without problem. Now I'm using used, filtered crankcase oil (I have a substantial leak requiring refill every 50 miles or so). So far, so good. What do you expect from someone driving a 20 year old vehicle.
