Give it time. I was losing about a table spoon of fluid a day from the rack through the rubber bellow on the drivers side. I Put a full bottle in and waited and waited. After 4 weeks ( about 300 miles) no more leaking. Just an update. . . still not leaking! Its been over 2 months now. I can say 100% honestly. This stuff worked for me. UPDATE... It's been well over a year now. Still not leaking. What have you got to lose?

[@Emilthehun]

I put this in my truck, and now the steering wheel needs all my efforts to turn 😂. Did this happen to you as well?

[@robertjebediahfreeman]

@@Emilthehun you probably need a new pump

[@Emilthehun]

@Fite Mi yea what ended up happening is it blew out all the fluid through the rack.

I appreciate the updates

[@yaboi156]

When do I add the power steering fluid after using the stop leak??

[@eddiearndt1949]

I was going thru a bottle every two months. I put Lucas stop leak in my reservoir it slowed the leak. I filled it up one more time and now it’s been 10 months and it has not leaked since. This stuff is amazing how well it works.

[@janzycodm2217]

Do you have to refill psf after putting button of Lucas? And can you drive it when you Lucas

[@rgbkingpin]

I think it's too late for me mine leaks and goes through a whole bottle every time I drive RIP. I did some research on my G6 and found out that my high or low lines might have a big hole burned in them.

can you add this to steering fluid or do you need to drain it first? Also do you add it to steering fluid cap or oil cap? thanks

Benson Saavedra I know it’s almost a year later but did it resolve your issues? I just got quoted 800 for a rack and pinion change

[@fotomedia1]

Had a leak in my Rack so I put in a bottle of the Lucas. It didn't quite fully stop the leak but it did slow it down considerably in the first week enough to avoid replacing the rack. Then surprisingly after a month of the Lucas flowing through my system it actually did stop the leak. I haven't topped off my fluid since, it's been 3 months now. I guess you need to be patient to see if it works for you.

[@hanksgarage_]

Yea people expect it to work immediately but it takes time. Especially if they don’t clean off the affected areas of all residual fluid from leak

[@duggiebadd2804]

Thanks for the info. Using this Lucas stop leak tomorrow. I have a slow leak as well.

[@dehydratedwater9734]

Thanks brother! I appreciate your video. I have a 89 f250 and I have a power steering leak as well. So before I put on a new Reservoir Because I believe that's where its coming from . Ill definitely try what you did. Iv Used Lucas products before . but one thing I can say when it comes to oil stabilizer from Lucas there's different types if you have an old engine used the older thicker stuff if you have a new engine or V VTI use the stuff that is a lot thinner. The Newer formula.

Good call. Hopefully there was a beer store on the way back home to grab some more coldies for the next night with the cash you saved.

[@amazinggraceranch6793]

Would this work if you’re not sure where the power steering is leaking from? It’s all over around in the engine , it looks wet but not sure where the leak is. We have to keep putting brake fluid in it. Also, for some reason, the windshield wiper fluid reservoir keeps blowing the cap off. Any ideas what that could be from?? This is a 2002 Chevy Silverado truck.

Sweet ride bro

[@SauceBoss127]

I have a 2000 Lexus ES and I believe there’s a small leak. But I have to drain the fluid because the last owner was using regular power steering fluid but you have to use ATF instead. Can I mix this stuff with ATF in my Lexus?

[@jsting23]

It works, I tried on my 07 Tahoe, had to use 2-3 bottles, but it work

[@jackpontiac52]

Just bought a 1993 Gulfstream motor home and the steering box leaks when sitting. Does not appear to leak when running at yet this is when it's under pressure. Looks to me like when it's under pressure the oil is pushing the seal neoprene up against the shafts . The reservoir tank holds at least 3 quarts of ATF. I wonder if one bottle would be enough. Also, it's a Diesel Pusher, so it's a long way from the pump to the steering box, so this would be another 1 to 2 quarts not including the pump.

Put some more fluid in it today, I've been reading the reviews on this product and it seems to get pretty good reviews I'm seriously considering getting some tomorrow. My question is should I empty our the reservoir completely and put it in or just do what you did. The leak is pretty substantial.

[@hanksgarage_]

just add into whats already there

[@kk-kh2kk]

Whats the update?

[@smod1994]

I have an 04 dodge Dakota 4.7 v8. The driver side inner tie rod bellow or rubber accordion was pouring out fluid which means the rack seal is shot. I just purchased the 32oz bottle of Lucas power steering stop leak. I drained the reservoir and added 100% Lucas. I then ran the engine turning the wheel lock to lock then I shut it off and let the Lucas slowly creep in to the leaking seals I will turn it on and work the steering lock to lock when it cools down. Nice video. I will update if the leak stopped.

[@smod1994]

So the conclusion is that I had to replace my rack and pinion because the inner seal was completely shot.i don't blame Lucas for not working because the leak was huge.

[@Brandon-uy1uv]

How can you tell if the seal is shot? Mine leaks like 2 tablespoons a day just sitting there from the drivers side from inside the boot area

[@SickestDisciple]

@@Brandon-uy1uv you’ve answered your own question. If it’s coming out from the inner tie rod bellows, it’s shot and need to replace rack and pinion.

Just buy a new hose. It's cheap

[@tarnishermack94]

Trying to determine if this is the route I should go on my 2011 terrain. It just started making a whining noise and the fluid ran out. The Lucas is certainly less expensive than a pump and will buy me some time.

[@hanksgarage_]

It's the cheapest at Walmart, it works a bit easier if you premix it into some power steering fluid in an external container and then put it in. Don't use a ton of it at first, you don't want it molasses thick.

Hi ! Well I have a Seat Córdoba 2007 and last year it started to leak of the power steering. Well, I went with my mechanic. But this car has an electric pump and not a mechanical, so the kind of oil that you can use it is not the same!!! this Lucas oil has a higher viscosity grade that is why it helps you to stop the leak. But in my car the pump almost burns !! So take care with that. Maybe you can use it with a lower viscosity oil in order to let the pump works perfectly. In my car does not work, because the steering gear and steering rack had a lot of wear. So I send them to repair. Now is working perfectly with no leak. I hope this comment helps you in any way ! Greetings from Guadalajara, Mexico :)

Did you add power steering fluid too ?

[@treyflip8097]

I’m dealing with my second rack and pinion leak on my 2011 Impala. This leak is smaller so I’m gonna give this a try myself. Worst case scenario is I have to get a new rack and pinion...I’m headed that way anyways. Glad to hear it worked for you

That,s my ten$ I spent on Lucas but he didn't work for my power steering case.

Lucas works for me, i have LX 470 2006 leaking on steering rack, lexus qouted me $2500 to replace the rack, fluid leaking and dripping on the floor.. i put 1 bottle then it increase the leak on the same day, the 4th day it slowed the leak, i place again 2nd bottle, the same day totally stop the leak.

Did you put any power steering fluid with it ?

[@hanksgarage_]

No but you can. All I did was top it up

[@bwduval904]

@@hanksgarage_ ok thank you

[@christianquiambao6981]

Do u only have to add the Lucas product or do you mix it with regular power steering fluid ?

[@lionreb]

It can be mixed with power steering fluid that is already in your system but it is recommended to use only Lucas from then on for this purpose.

Hi my friend ! What update do you have ? How long did it last ?

[@hanksgarage_]

It lasted all the way until I junked the car

[@cotedivoire4africa]

Hank's Garage how many bottles did you put in total ? 1? And where was gleaming from ? The steering rack right ?

[@cotedivoire4africa]

And also , it makes the steering fluid VISCOUS for the whole time right ?

[@Seak305]

For the people saying that it works, should I pour the whole bottle in it?? Or mix 50/50 with power steering fluid??
