Default My car is leaking atf. And the brakes are sqweeking...???

Okay so i pull my car out to take it for a short ride before dinner, and i come back to atf or power steering fluid all over the driveway. So i get out and check the tank and its almost empty. I also noticed that the brakes were sqweeking more than normal does the atf have anything to do with the brakes....??

sounds like you need to fix your ps- if your cars been sitting awhile, the rotors get rusty- squeek.

It may not be the rack, there are rubber hoses from the tabk that go to the pump and to the rack, there is also rubber connections on the p/s cooler line.

Those all have hose clamps (and a couple of crimps) and could be leaking from there.....check that out first.

there is an update for the supply line banjo bolt for the 86 cars- gets rid of the banjo and is just a fitting that screws into the pump.
