the 2004 malibu does not have a place to put transmission fluid it has a electric power steering system and does not use fluid, if you are having a problem with the power steering light chimming and lighting up this is under a recall that chevy has obligated to fix. So if your car is doing this take it to your local chevy dealership and have them to repair it for you. Hope this helps.
Your van don't have the regular air (vacum) power brake booster, your has a hydraboost brake booster, which is power by your power steering pump, if power steering pump goes bad you will not have power steering or brakes, brake peddle will feel very hard and will take alot of pressure on the brake peddle to stop your van, more the likely your power steering pump is bad.
it goes in the power steering pump reservoir. Look on the belt side of the engine, ps often rearward on passenger side, obscured from vision by engine parts. Need a flex funnel to add.
i have an impala Ls 3.8 liter and (not sure about the 3.4 liter) but mine is located in the back of the engine near the middle. and get a long thin funnel because its down a little ways.
The resevoir should be on the power steering pump
If you are good on fluid then maybe you need to check for excessive play in the steering box itself, check idler arm, and tie rod ends.
find the belts look at the pulleys there should be one with a yellow neck on the other side of the pump with a metal line coming out of the side of it. theres a lid turn and lift
Find the power steering pump. The fluid goes in the top of the pump. Look for a twist off cap that has a measuring stick attached to the under side, when you take it off. Make sure you use the correct type of fuild for YOUR kind of vehicle. There are diffrent types for different makes of vehicles. Don't OVERFILL the pump.
