* Oil is not a good lubricant for power steering systems. Power steering fluid is specially formulated to lubricate the seals and components in your power steering system. Oil does not have the same properties as power steering fluid, and it can actually cause damage to your system.
* Oil can cause your power steering system to overheat. Oil has a higher boiling point than power steering fluid, which means it can reach higher temperatures before it starts to boil. This can cause your power steering system to overheat, which can damage the components in the system.
* Oil can cause your power steering system to leak. Oil is not as viscous as power steering fluid, which means it can leak more easily from the system. This can cause your power steering system to lose fluid, which can lead to damage to the system.
If you think you have oil in your power steering fluid, you should have your vehicle towed to a mechanic as soon as possible.
