Does it get leak? If it is, replace it.
Mine is leaking now at 75k. I have to order one before I replace it.

This is for all the folks out there who want to service their own power steering system. You won't find this in any service schedules or owners manuals, but he P/S system should be serviced every 30K miles. The fluid isn't subjected to acids like the engine oil, but it is subjected to heat and pressure like an automatic transmission.
