I can tell you with reasonable confidence that it's green. I can tell you this as my driveway is green at the moment thanks to a steering rack failure!

The halfrauds central transmission/steering fluid is green also and is stated to be directly compatible.

Going back a few years ago I had a mk4 Golf that had a new rack not long before I bought it, seals went a while after and was told at the time it was due to the wrong fluid (red).
For that reason I've never ran anything other than the oem green.
