Folks, use genuine honda power steering fluid. Don't use after market or brand. Otherwise you might destroy the pump.

[@rodriguezg100]

How often do you recomment people do this? Is this what a dealership would do? or you have to eventually take it to them even after doing this?

Thanks for the clear instructions man! Saved me $250 and only took 20 minutes of my time. Ordered parts with your links and used 2.5 bottles since I completed the drain/fill process a total of 4 times. Now onto the transmission fluid...

I drive an ‘04 Accord. My power steering was going out intermittently and it was worrying me. Checked my fluid and it was black and sludgy. Followed this guide to a T and flushed the system with 3 bottles of genuine Honda PS fluid. Worked like a charm to fix my steering issues. Thanks for the in-depth guide! I’ll be flushing my coolant next, followed by a transmission fluid change, using your videos as a guide.

Used this method today on my 07 Ridgeline. Took away the annoying whine I had and made turning much lighter. And that pump was worth the money and 2-day wait, for sure. Thank you for sharing!

[@rcros8234]

Amazingly clean engine! Big Dog's rationale as explained toward the end of video about how it could be dangerous to run the pump dry or harmful to rack by performing a full flush is very interesting. Have not heard others warn of this downside to completely draining. Thanks! Motivated now to start changing out fluid as he demonstrates.

2 yr old video I just stumbled upon and found it so helpful and clear, simple explanation and very simplified process for DIYers. First time I ever hit the subscribe button in youtube. I also just realized you are the same person that I watched the video last week for Honda Accord 2.4L ATF Service (Drain and Fill). And you have a video for coolant change, how awesome is that!! Hoping you have a video for spark plug change as well. My search for DIY began cause of dealership recommending me these fluid changes every visit even if they were done in only past 15k miles. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and crystal clear instructions/videos!

[@BigDog50001]

I appreciate the comment, thanks!

[@RothBeyondTheGrave]

About to do this on my mom's '07 TL along with a little system refresh & was also concerned about running the pump dry. Came across another vid that showed the same method you did, and it def looks like a good, simple, and clean one. These comments are full of many happy ppl who you've inspired to not be afraid to diy, and that's awesome. Respect!!

[@BigDog50001]

Thank you, I appreciate the comment!

[@axjohn]

I’ve used this method for almost 50 years, except I don’t do 3 immediate drain-and-fills. Learned this trick in the auto hobby shop while I was in the Air Force during the Vietnam War. I do the first drain and fill and then drive the car for at least a week to make sure all the new fluid mixes with the old. I then repeat 2 more times. I do that procedure every 25,000- 30,000 miles. Have never replaced a rack on any car in my life, and never had a car less than 150,000 before I sold it. Kept most of them well over 200k, and sold last one at 300k. They’ve been Hondas, Toyotas, Mercury Capris, Acuras, and Saabs.

P.S. your engine bay is spotless!

@P JB Same! They quoted me $160 at Honda for my Acura RSX, that is probably without the tax. I will do this method or the full drain method, engine off, with front wheels lifted off of the ground. Like Big Dog, I am not interested in the full drain with engine running.

[@WilliamDuncan-vc5oo]

Just drained and filled my psf. It has been ok, but not changed in awhile. The plews pump really helps change without a mess. It certainly has to help prevent a problem.

[@ZacharyTeich-HikingTrainer]

Hi Big Dog, thank you for the informative video. I was going to completely drain the system, but after seeing this I will use your method. I may go through 2-3 bottles of fluid, just to get as much of the old fluid out as possible, but this method is easier and more pump-friendly than a complete drain. Thanks!

[@BigDog50001]

This is not the way Honda says to do it in the manual, they have the power steering system pumped dry and then refilled (however they do not have a recommended maintenance interval). With the amount of issues that Honda power steering racks and pumps have, I am not a fan of that method for NORMAL maintenance. This is an alternative that can be done at specific maintenance intervals. *If you would like to see how to replace power steering fluid the conventional way, you can see it here in this power steering pump replacement video* kzbin.info/www/bejne/rWLWfpSpaL-WotE

[@TheRealBean72]

Big Dog50001 Automotive I had a P/S line leak caused by rubbing on AC clutch so I did that repair and added regular Prestone fluid on a Honda now my rack and pinion has fluid leaking you think that fluid could of have caused that???

[@BigDog50001]

There is a good possibility depending on how long the fluid was in there, other manufacturers power steering fluid is generally not compatible with Hondas. Some manufactures do have a Honda specific formula but I am still not a fan of using them, the slight difference in money is not worth it in my opinion. That said, even when using genuine Honda PS fluid leaks can still happen over time due to seals going bad.

[@TheRealBean72]

Big Dog50001 Automotive well my car is a ‘07 accord and that fluid was probably in for about a year since i first introduced prestone

[@TylertheGeek28]

Yeah I've seen some people completely drain it by pulling one of the return lines, but honestly for an amateur like me this might he safer than disconnecting anything lol. My fluid is really old and bubbles are starting to appear in the reservoir so need to do it soon as possible

[@averyalexander2303]

Great tip! I've always removed the return line and turned the wheel back and forth until no fluid came out with the engine off then refilled and turned the wheel back and forth several times until the level stops dropping to get most of the air out before starting the engine. I jack up the front so it steers easy before starting, but you don't have to. With that method, the pump never runs dry just like with your method. Running the pump dry isn't ideal, but running the rack dry is not a concern at all. From my experience, you can drive for years with NO fluid in the rack and not damage it, but the pump will eventually be destroyed.

[@smith6288]

Thanks, got the pump and the fluid at Amazon. Am going to do this today!! So simple.]

[@GenX_US_Marine]

I did this last year, but once I sucked up the reservoir fluid I turned my wheel lock to lock a few times, and some fluid was in the reservoir. I sucked that stuff out, and put in fresh Honda fluid. I did this 4 times, but I guess your way makes more sense, and I will do that next time. I just wanted to make sure I got all of the old stuff out of the rack.

Awesome video. Am planning on draining and filling my PS fluid on my honda soon. Just want to ask, when you drained your old fluid from the reservoir how much do you take out? Do you just stop at the minimum line and then add to the max line or do you just go below the minimum line? I do not want to risk emptying the whole reservoir as that may cause problems. Thank you for the informative video.

[@averyalexander2303]

Suck out as much fluid as you can, you actually won't be able to empty the entire reservoir with this method because there's a plastic filter screen at the bottom. But even if you did empty the whole reservoir, as long as you refill it before starting the engine, you won't get any air into the system or cause any problems.

Hey Big Dog, in the past I've jacked the front, sucked out the fluid, and ran the return from the pump into a jar instead of the reservoir. Then I add new fluid and turn the steering wheel back and forth until I see clean fluid in the jar. I usually have to refill the reservoir once or twice. This is all done with the engine off. Is there any negative to my method other than it's slower than yours? Just got a 2010 Odyssey. You have great videos, thank you.

Great video. The pump to get the fluid out the reservoir made the job so much easier. Followed all your steps and got just about all the dirty & old fluid out. I can hear some whine when I first turn on the car and turning the wheel. Bad P/S pump? The whine was worse before replacing the fluid, but I can still somewhat hear it.

[@edy5082]

That can possibly be the orings on the hoses that go to the pump, both high and low pressure side have one. I was having the same issue when I bought my accord, it was more obvious in cold weather, and went away when operating temperatures were reached.

[@Mopar3.6LV6]

@@edy5082 Thx for the reply. I replaced both o-rings soon after replacing the fluid. Still getting some whine. No leaks from pump or anywhere along lines/rack from what I can see. Fluid level staying at the max line. Was considering the belt tensioner or belt? Or even still the pump?

[@edy5082]

@@Mopar3.6LV6 as long as the fluid are at level, and there are no leaks. I would say just live with it, it could just be a worn PS pump, as long as it doesn't stiffen when turning you should be okay, many fords go on that way for years. Another way to know if there is still a leak in the system is to see if the reservoir is foaming, slight fluid circulation is fine. But replacing the tensioner and belt would be good maintance to do, better to do it while you can rather than on the side of the road. Not a difficult job, plenty of videos online takes roughly about 45min - 1 Hour to complete if you go slow. Keep us all updated.

[@BigDog50001]

Jesus Saves Glad it helped, start small and work your way up. This procedure is similar to a transmission service in that you don't get all the fluid out at one time. If you want to know how to do a service on the transmission fluid, I did a transmission service video on a 2012 Accord and a 2006 Civic, go check them out. It is pretty easy to do but the procedure is different than doing power steering fluid.

[@armando56789]

Love the videos! Straight to the point and always give confidence that these things can be done at home with basic tools. Do you think it matters if you siphon out all power steering fluid from reservoir versus just the fluid above the inlet hose line to avoid getting air in the system? Or is bleeding out the air turning the wheel lock to lock enough to just drain out the whole reservoir?

[@BigDog50001]

Turning steering lock to lock a few times after the service is done should get any any air that was introduced out, so I don't worry about going below the return or suction lines (more important to me to grab as much of the old fluid in the reservoir). Thanks for the comment!

After you're done using the pump how would you store it? Do I need to clean out the pump somehow or do I just leave it as is until the next time I have to use it?

[@BigDog50001]

I let the pump drain into the jug for a bit and then wrap it in a rag and store it in a plastic bin. I have multiple pumps for different fluids and I label them all and I do not mix fluids.

@@BigDog50001 Welcome. If possible can you do a Throttle Body Cleaning video for Civic. Mine is 09’ but any model should be ok, i am looking for mistakes to avoid while doing mine. Once again, many thanks Sir 🙏🏽

Thanks for the video! What was the name again of the pump you used? Is it something that is usually available at O'Reilly's?

Hello.. thanks so much. One question... what happens with the fluid after of change it 3 times? Can you use it again or just trash?

[@BigDog50001]

I don't recommend reusing the old fluid. Once it is removed, it should be disposed of properly.

Hey BigDog50001 thanks for letting us learn from you. But I have a question this is only for Honda? Or it applies to other makes like Toyota Nissan or Hyundai
