Everybody know antifreeze is the cure all. Why would you use power steering sealant, when antifreeze has withstood the test of time to be the cure all of everything?

My personal experience is that sealants are always a temporary fix that cause wear on other components in the system, especially pumps. So, that said, I'd bit the bullet.
Wait for sauto et al to chime in though. |

Go to a Honda forum and do a search...see if a R&P leak is a common issue. When I've had leaks it was always just the hoses to the pump. I dont have a Honda but it might be worth an hour of research..

Don't let the car shop screw you. 99% of time its a hose leaking and sometimes it just needs a wrench to tighten it back up. Might need to replace a hose.

If the rack is leaking the boots on the inner tie rod ends will be wet, it should be easy to verify that leak.

Sauto obviously has stuff goin' on right now, but he's well worth the wait. He can even fix cars over the phone. In the mean time, enjoy the rapier wit of CP's finest. Dinny |

And that might just be a temporary fix but i can't see it hurting anything else in the long run. It's good stuff
