I have seen many people on YouTube use your method, a turkey baster, lift the car up and connect the return line with a plastic hose, and more. But the method that worked the best for me was using a vacuum pump. I know it can cost between $30-$60 but it really does pay for itself because one is able to easily change all fluids with ease and takes all if not majority of the old fluid out.

The other day, I did this on 2010 Chevrolet Impala 9C1. Very practical and effective.

[chewbakka]

I just did this on my wifes 04 2wd. I need to do it again to get more of the old nasty fluid out.
As always man, great content!

That was awesome! Dealer charged me over $200.... guess who’s NOT paying that😏😎 thank you

I followed procedure today on my 97 TJ. I went through two bottles and my fluid was better but still has a ways to go. Will be going and getting some more fluid and this off. I have only had the TJ since August and not sure if this has ever been done. It only has 106, 980 miles on it and I totally enjoy it. I also changed the manual transmission fluid today as well. It needed it to so I'm glad I did that. Thank you for the video.

I do this with brake fluid and engine coolant too. However after u drain the resovoiuir and refill it the first time. Don’t keep repeating the process immediately. The new fluid needs to mix and dilute with the left over fluids in system. If you do a second removal you’re just sucking up the new fluid u put in. Drive for a few hundred miles let it all mix then repeat. Once a week is fine

I was wondering if after you change the fluid that you drop a magnet into the power steering reservoir Since I have a 2011 wrangler and the reservoir has a screen inside .The magnet would set on top of the screen so it would not interfere with the flow and it would be easy to remove the reservoir tank and remove the magnet for cleaning The magnet would collect any metal in the fluid act like a power steering filter like a magnefine filter or cardone filter would only cheaper and without cutting any hoses

Thank you so much for this information, appreciate it😉

$95.00 is a fair deal.

But you option is just fine also.

By the time you get it all together and so on.

It costs you about the same...in your time....etc.

Great video.
Well done.

[sneakthief]

Awesome! Going to try this out on my WJ later

[TheBossFamilyvids]

A 1$ turkey baster works also(takes longer)

[blairguinea]

Awesome explanation Sir !, yep it make alot of sense doing this way cause der basically all the sh@# is coming back to the the smail tank and really there is no need to take low pressure hose

[godfreyberry]

At today's oil prices, would really love to know where you get such cheap power steering fluid. Manufacturer specified cost almost $20 per litre and more than one was required. Shop price wasn't that bad considered a vac pump would also be required. Amazing, the vac pump complete cost less than 1 litre of power steering fluid.

Quick check with a clear plastic turkey baster.you can see how dark the fluid is. If it’s dark change it. Drain the pump with the baster. Refill and take the car for a short drive around the block. Keep repeating till somewhat clean.

Great video! Question. If I'm uncertain about the type of power steering fluid previously used in my car, will following the instructions from the video be sufficient? I've never flushed or added power steering fluid to this car before, but I've purchased a new bottle and want to ensure that flushing the system will adequately prepare it for the new fluid, even if it differs from what was originally used. I noticed at 2:21 you said it wouldn't drain the whole system, but will just empty out the reservoir, so I want to make sure I'm not going to screw my car up. TIA.

[JwadOgumface]

Is there any concern with air in the system as with brakes and coolant?

[GaryWillers-jc]

If it is a 2008 Mazda wer is the resivore

[barbarad]

What technique and products do you use to clean out that pump after you're done so that it's clean and ready for the next time?

[luisvargas]

Wow, $199 on Koons Tysons thanks man.

[kingsavo]

Power steering pump has been full but no power steering I'm wondering is it a clog in the reservoir or hose the fluid is real dirty
