Some time ago I heard the familiar sound of the PS pump cavitating (ouch!). I added fluid, figuring it was winter and these things happen, and the sound went away. Then I saw a few drops of fluid underneath the _rear_ bumper and figured it was dew. I felt it and it was definitely oily. So anyway, it looks like there's a leak in or around the reservoir, prolly the reservoir itself or hoses. So, is this a typical thing, is this a dealer only part, or can Ron or one of you other guys conjure up a reservoir and hoses? BTW, Bentley says Dextron II. Is that OK with net.wisdom?
