    YES! Use only Honda PS fluid in there (there is an aftermarket one that makes fluid "for Honda/Acura", never heard much about it though). If you use any old fluid, you seals will swell up, and gone long enough, you could end up like Joe having to replace an expensive steering rack (not fun). It's not that expensive at the dealer....I think around $2.50-3.00
