JLR Cold climate power steering fluid, or oil to same spec. To see the level, shine a torch through the top...

If you need a lot to top up then you may have the dreaded pipe failure... Pete

Not sure if this normal or not, but the fluid is very brown and below minimum...

Also, the coolant level seemed low and dirty as well.

Do I need to be concerned, or just top up/drain and refill?

(see attached pics)

Thanks

Is the colour of the AS fluid correct/ish?

As said it’s supposed to be light green

A good flush and refill would be a good idea… Thumbs Up Pete

That brown fluid has water in it (or coolant). I'd definitely consider flushing it...

There is a write up on forum on how to change out the fluid.

I did an addition to the thread where if you have two people to hand it is done in no time.
