I saw in a previous thread that they were told to use Decron II automatic transmission fluid for power steering fluid. Could that also apply to the S430?

never believe the sealed for life business, I've replaced the fluid on my w220 after six years and it was the colour of melted chocolate when it came out, and the car is a whole different beast now.
