[QUOTE="Dennis Shelley, post: 1020396, member: 58803"] would advise to drop the tranny pan, remove/replace the filter. Refill with name brand fluid. This is an easy owner job. DIY is about $30.00. shop cost (not dealer) $90.00. Well worth it. Inspect the ball joints and idle arms, any grease zerks S/B lubed. Again an easy DIY job. Get a vacuum pump, pump out all the brake fluid from the reservoir and replace. Do this at every oil change. Steering fluid, pump out all you can from the reservoir and replace with fresh, Do this at every oil change. This is not limited to your ST but is good carma with any vehicle. Dennis [/QUOTE]
