Re: Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, you have a real problem. First you need to take the car to a mechanic who can totally flush the brake system to remove the power steering fluid from everything. You may unfortunately have to have the calipers, wheel cylinders, master cylinder, abs and brake lines replaced if the system cannot be adequately flushed.

The reason you have the problems you have is due to the power steering fluid not having the same characteristics as brake fluid. The power steering fluid does not compress like the brake fluid and probably boils when the brakes gets hot causing a loss of braking power. Get this fixed asap since you may find yourself with a loss of braking entirely. Once you have this done you shouldn't have any further problems.

Welcome to the forum!!! Sorry for the bad news.
