manufacture's recommended fluids

[tophatchef]

I have a 1989 Xj6, and am without any sort of owner's manual. Can anyone tell me what type of coolant Jaguar recommends? Power steering fluid? Transmission fluid?

the power steering fluid depends, mine will take regualar power steering fluid but becuase the air shocks were converted to standard , but originally it took hydraulic system mineral oil, if u go to a foreign auto parts place they have it, its in a green bottle with a red lid, dont remember the name but they can tell u, i dont know about the trans fluid but the coolant is yellow in mine and i have no owners manual either, but they dont tell u in the service manual i looked at in advanced auto , u might be able to find out by a dealer, just call one up, my power steering leaks thats why i know that, no one wants to tell u anything about these cars , its crazy
