Default Power steering fluid V.Jag

I tried googling it but i can't find... I'm hoping you guys will be better at then me


Looking to find out how(where) to add steering fluid in a 1992 Jaguar xj12 series III

I just can't find it!! also what kind of fluid would it take... special or just the generic.

I can't even find a nice forum for it. I want to know if it's normal that the car only gives me 12MPG

The XJ12 weighs about as much as Blenheim Palace and is powered by a six-liter twelve-cylinder engine.

It was not built for peasants.

If you're not mechanically inclined, a jag is a bad choice, that is what ToD is trying to say

While that is also very true, it wasn't what I said.

Yup I went and looks like they need to drop $4k in it. Ac, steering, oil leak and full tune up. Live that car seriously expensive to maintain
