Where is the power steering reservoir?

[Tully]

I have a 1990 Country Coach. I am getting a little steering wheel chatter when I turn the wheel to the left or right. The coach has been sitting for several weeks and I just noticed this when I start the coach up today.

I want to check the fluid level on the power steering. Where would this be located.

What type of fluid should I use.

Thanks,

Tully

My 1999 XL45', facing the engine compartment, it is on the upper right just above and behind to the left of the air filter. It is a black cylinder (about a 12" tall and the same in diameter) with a screw top.

Found it, was low.

Says to use Dextron.

Where do you purchase Dextron power steering fluid?

It's automatic transmission fluid - you can get it at any auto parts store

I had mine checked at Prevost, as I was complaining about a squealing sounds when turning at slow speeds after running for long periods on the highway, especially at the end of the day coming off ramps etc.

Prevost said that they were transitioning from the light weight Power steering fluids to a heavier weight oil that seems to work better, and in my case made a huge difference all around, even makes the steering more responsive in my opinion. Prevost can tell you what the oil is, but it is definitely not your typical power steering fluid. I would only consider this if you are prepared to change out all of the oil.
