gage Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 I have a 2003 lx470 with 66k on it and I am thinking about changing out the ahc and power steering fluid myself. I want to siphon out the reserviors in the engine bay and add new fluid. I know this method wont totally replace the old fluid but it should take care of most of it. does anyone see any problems with this less than perfect method?

Texasoil Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 Emptying (and refilling) the reservoir is first step. Then raise the vehicle all the way. Then, starting with left rear, open the 'brake bleeder' located on each of the ride control valves just above the accumulators (on each side, under the running boards, between front and rear wheels. Be careful because the vehicle will drop down as you bleed the old fluid. When it stops coming out a bleeder, close it, restart and let it raise up again, go to the next closest to the reservoir. LR,RR, LF,RF. BE sure and refill the reservoir as required. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
