Rep Power: 0 Bubbling Power Steering Fluid
I looked inside the hood one day with the engine running and found the fluid inside the power steering holder bubbling and hot. Is that normal for the new generation Hondas? I am super worried.

Rep Power: 0 Yeah my 01 Prelude use to do that everytime the engine was running. It was bubbling in the resovoir. I think its just the pump moving the fluid around or something.

Rep Power: 400 The reservoir tank is tied into the pump. There will be some turbulence in it if the pump is running (engine on). Turn the car off, then look. If its still bubbling, then you boiled it, but I would be very surprised if you did.
