Power Steering Fluid question

Hello,

I have a 97 camry, the Power Steering Fluid, I want to add some in. I want to the dealer, they give me a napa Power Steering Fluid, but the manual say I need a ATF Dexron II or III. I bought a valvoline ATF Dexron III, I open it, it's red color. but the oil on the car looks not the red color?

what should I do?

Thanks,

Derick

that's the one i use for my ES300 from NAPA in blue label bottle.

THat is DEX-III without dye. when dealer is offering, should be right.

Dude, the Valvoline ATF dex III was fine. Like you said, in the manual it tells you to use ATF dex 2/3. You should have just flushed the system and put new fluid in
