Power steering fluid

[Rob Andrews]

Actually 7 is what used to be used.  11 is backwards compatible with 7, but
don't use 7 in 11 equipped cars.  I can't remember when the change started,
but all cars now should be using 11.  It has better properties anyway, and
since you can use 11 in a 7 car, I'd go for it!
