On the power steering reservoir it says use automatic transmission fluid Type A or F and gives Dexron II as example of type F. My 2005 DI Operators manual says Dexron III. Whats proper fluid?

I would go with the Dexron III. It's the most current spec fluid and replaced Dexron II.

I use Dexron III in my 5005. I learned real quick not to get all uptight about what was in the manual vs. what I put in everything else. I think when Mahindra got the tooling rights to the old Internationals, they also copied the fluid reccomendations.
