Quick Question re Power Steering Fluid.

[Tdm]

I used up the last of my Power Steering fluid when I topped up the system recently.
It came from a bottle bought in the U.K. some time ago that said Power Steering Fluid on it.
I have another totally different bottle with Automatic Transmission fluid in it.

Calling in at the local Petrol Station I asked for some Power Steering fluid but they just directed me to a bottle on the shelf that just said (in Spanish) Transmission fluid (so I didn't purchase it).

What's the difference between the two?, can I use transmission fluid in the PAS, or do I need to look further afield for specific PAS fluid?

You can use your TQF/AQF transmission fluid in the PAS - you can even get away with topping up using Dexron 2

My local shop said I couldn't mix, yet Volvo main dealer says it's ok and has been.
