Flushing power steering fluid and eliminate power steering pump noise. This video shows you how to drain all of your power steering fluid and completely flush out the system. This method will ensure you get a complete fluid change and flush to give you another 100k miles of care free driving. The power steering fluid should be changed based on your owners manual service section (typically in the back of the book). Symptoms of bad power steering fluid are brown or black fluid, a loud power steering pump, and having a hard time turning the steering wheel.

Cool beans , tnx
Hi chris my question if the system wont suck air during this process,waiting for the answer please.
This who’ll NOT take my rookie ass 5 minutes 🤣🤦🏻♀️
I know more about cars and how to fix things now. Yesteryear I didn't know anything. All because of ChrisFix and his easy to follow videos.
I just put almost half a quart of 5w-30 oil in my power steering pump because the jugs looked the same
Damn, It's a shame you don't have just channel for VW T4 Transporter. 😀 😀
I was wondering what power steering was
Gonna do this job today on my KIA FORTE 2013 EX. So far changed my oil to full synthetic high mileage mobile 1, changed the ATF (will need a new temperature sensor though 😔 – spring project since it’s a sealed transmission), changed the pcv valve all using your videos
Yah I had to do this recently on my Honda odyssey
I ended up doing 6 drain and fills. Before it started to quiet up on cold morning starts.
5 drain and fills using Honda compatible PSF auto parts store branded.
That got most of it and was a lot better but still on cold starting on cold mornings, it would wine for a few seconds then go away. To fix that I had to use Lucus universal.PSF. With seal conditioners. And that completely fixed it.
It has 240k miles
Thank you for the video
My mom had a flat around 2 in the morning and I had to go to her to help, cuz that’s moms heart❤. All of a sudden my steering was stiff so I’m hoping this is the problem. I’ll try this after auto zone opens lol I have to find a way to get to moms first I’ll keep y’all updated hopefully everything goes well. Thanks Chris
Appreciate your video but would be nice to highlight make and model
Thanks
@chrisfix where did you buy that fluid extractor/pump I really need me one of those right now
Can I do without jacking up my truck
I used one puppy puddle buster sheet, one was pushed between the return line connection and the high pressure tube. The oil dripped on the sheet and ended in my waste oil container. No mess. Great video which helped me a lot.
I have an 08 pacifica and the low pressure socket is right above the alternator so that is very helpful
Also the suction gun i got the plastic bit fits onto the socket which actually helps alot
Thank you. I was watching multiple videos, wondering how to know which is the return line.
Alot can go wrong here. If you have no experience do not this job without someone professional helping you. Chris is a pro. He doesn't tell you about things that can go wrong. If you screw up for example on my 2008 Toyota V6 the pump and hoses were 1 grand to fix. I had old rusty shit and when I messed with the system it started leaking. So just be mindful before you start.
9 years later and your still helping people. Absolutely legend
Boy you were right about making a mess 😂
In five years Chris will have hired someone to do all the dirty work for his awesome channel 😂
Too bad any kind of fluid now cost a small fortune.
WELL DONE.
