If you use anything but Honda fluid, you will destroy your power steering pump. Period.

No... you can do that in other types of cars but not Hondas. That One Dude called it.

I know that, for other cars...I read it in manual that ATF will damage system, but some ppl put that fluid in their Hondas, so I was in little dillema...but Honda Power Fluid it is!!! :D
Btw, how much it costs? Just to compare prices there and here in Serbia.

Here, the price is maybe a dollar or two more than the regular power steering fluid. I don't mind buying it because I have 3 hondas in my household.

I wouldn't particulary worry about how much it costs...

I'd rather buy a bottle of fluid than a pump.
