both my power steering and anti freez were low i used the honda steering fluid
and prestone anti-freez (green color) is the prestone good?
is that the right one?

You can't go wrong with any anti-freeze, as long it's a 50/50 mix.

Well, not exactly. Hondas are supposed to use type-2 coolant that is non-silicate and non-borate.

Usually with our cars and other Japanese cars, you can use any coolant but its always best to use the same type of coolant.

But with cars like BMW's, their coolant is actually "special" and its a blue color. Some people's car actually got messed up with mixing "regular" green coolant with BMW's coolant because it would clump up. But that's just BMW's.

did you notice this is a 2004 thread?
hope the OP found the coolant and ps leaks!!

Um...ours is blue, too. I just changed mine last weekend with the Honda coolant.
