I read on a forum that my 2004 VW New Beetle Convertible requires this kind of fluid for the power steering. I had noticed the steering popping a little (for lack of a better word), and when I found where to check, it was a bit low. Ordered this, put it in up to just below max, and I can tell the steering is more responsive now and haven't heard the popping. So it seems good.It arrived with a dent, but who cares. It's not for beauty.
