Just had a quick check on my fluid levels and saw both these were a little lower than I would like.
What do people recommend? Has anyone local got some I can have?

Nearest unipart for OAT coolant, then mix it 50/50 with water. Its about 1/4 the price of halfords!

lol true
OAT coolant only, mixing coolants will cause corrosion problems as they start reacting with each other, however any power sterring fluid will do, but id check you havent got a leak at all because it shouldnt be going down

Any local motor factors will stock all types from 500ml upwards. I bought a load of fluids last week to stock up the garage. Red/pink OAT for the coolant, there should be a yellow collar under the expansion tank cap that tells you this. Standard power steering fluid will do the job.
