I have NEVER heard of anyone changing the oil in their steering box.

I've been planning to fill mine with grease for ages (it leaks, may be empty now, I haven't checked) read up on here, it seems that's the best solution anyway, unless it's all good and you have oil to fill it with.

I've had a steering specialist tell me to ignore any manufacturers advise on filling them with oil and just fill them with grease.
