OK, so I've invested in this set from eBay.



Is this a job suitable for a DIYer? If so, any advice would be gratefully received.  If I choose to go ahead, I'll take lots of pics and make it into a How To.

You'll need the Toyota Ps fluid. It isn't cheap though.

Yes, thanks, already suffered that one. That's what drew my attention to the problem, noisy steering. On inspection the level was way under MIN so glad that a top up cured it. However, this expensive fluid is now dripping slowly out of the bad pipes...even more obviously with the rain we've been having...the drive is sparkling all sorts of pretty rainbow colours!   s:D :D s:D    s:( :( s:(

But rainbow sparkly drive!  Wow! Lol.

I have been advised on the MOT that mine need changing so I will be keeping a keen eye on this.
