Im about to change the Jetta's ps fluid. I was looking in the book and it calls for ps fluid no. G002000. I went on German Auto parts website and they recommend Pentosin CHF 11S. Are these two fluids compatiable? 97 Jetta 2.0L.

There is really nothing special about either fluid.
Both meet Audi/VW hydraulic CHF 7.1 fluid specifications.
The CHF 11S is a synthetic mineral oil blend replacement for the original fluid, which was a mineral oil.
It is equivalent to BMW hydraulic fluid part numbers 82.11.1.468.041 and 81.22.9.407.758, and Porsche hydraulic fluid part number 000.043.203.33.
You can also use one of the after market synthetic power steering fluids.

I have been using Valvoline Synpower PS Fluid in my 03 VW Golf TDI for the past 40K miles with no problem. The Synpower fluid was on sale at Checker for $1/qt.
Not that any of you cares, but here are a few shots of the VW PSF in question. I purchased it for my '00 GTI.

I was under the impression that the chf11s only retains it's properties for spec use if not mixed with non sun oils. So I'd want to be very aware of what was originally there, so to set up my strategy for what fluid I use and how much changeout I do.
Use Mobil 1 ATF.

Or use NyQuil. I'll stick what the car manufacturer recommends: CHF 11s.

You can use the AMSOIL Power Steering fluid--it is compatible.
