The video above shows you the steps needed to check the power steering fluid level in your 2002 Audi A4 Quattro. Checking the power steering fluid level in your A4 Quattro is relatively easy and should be done once a month or if you are experienced difficulty turning the wheel or steering your A4 Quattro. Your A4 Quattro should be parked on a level surface and your 1.8 liter engine should be cold to the touch. If the power steering fluid level in your A4 Quattro is low, fill it up to the maximum line with power steering fluid and check it again in a week to determine if you have a leak. The power steering fluid reservoir will typically have a symbol of a steering wheel on the cap. Likewise, if your A4 Quattro has electric power steering, you may see a steering wheel picture with an explanation point next to it on your dashboard to indicate power steering problems.

Everyone says that anything except VW/Audi-Pentosin CHF-11 will cause the steering to seize or leak like a sieve, however my personal experience with an Audi 5000 CS Turbo that dripped Pentosin like crazy, was that the Prestone worked and actually stopped the leaks. I just added the Prestone until gradually didn't need to anymore. The steering and power brakes (that car had a duel-pump for hydraulic brake assist) was working fine even as the Salvation Army flatbed truck came to take it away. Still, use non-specified fluids at your own risk, as your experience might end up differently than mine with the CS Turbo. Tech Guru

Absolutely 4Driver, if this was a tongue-in-cheek post, I'd wouldn't have justified it with my CS Turbo story. So if you've seen a steering system get ruined using the Prestone PS fluid, by all means let me know so I don't advise this again. It's just that I'm a pragmatist when it comes to things like ATF and hydraulic fluids. Pentosin is a "mineral oil", an old-fashioned term for petroleum-based oils that come from the ground, as opposed to vegetable oils or animal oils. Prestone PS is a "mineral oil" too, mixes with Pentosin, and worked out for me. But as I made clear- "use non-specified fluids at your own risk, as your experience might end up differently than mine with the CS Turbo"... and "If you are absolutely stuck..." AudiWorld Super User

Last can of Pentosin I bought was under $25. Try the VW dealer instead as they use the same fluid. My local O'reillys has it for $22. If you can't afford that, I recommend a bus pass.
