Default 98 ES300 Power Steering Fluid

I have a power steering fluid leak and I fill it up twice a month but it looks like it's getting leak more day by day, I know I need to fix it but I would like to be sure if I'm using a good fluid for power steering, I'm using `Castrol Transmax Import Multi-vehicle` for months now, is this good for the car or would anyone suggest other products? I recently read an article that says transmission fluid is not good for power steering, how true is that? Would be appreciated for opinions.

Yes, that is a good fluid to use. The PS system uses Dexron III type fluid.

If you are going through a lot of it, you can save a few dollars by getting some Supertech Dex III at Walmart:
