2013 Mazda 6
Yearly 1 quart siphon change.
Out mix of old, mostly RP Max.
Added 1 quart of Amsoil SS ATF.
Formerly used Royal Purple Max ATF for this but is no longer readily available.
OUT: Turkey bastered the reservoir WHICH HAD BEEN FILLED TO THE TOP (20 oz. out)
IN: Honda PS fluid to the correct level (12 oz. in)
NOTE: The over-filled reservoir apparently didn't allow for any "debubbling". The pump growled. Also, heat expanded fluid had leaked out.
It was a small mess.
Now the pump runs silently as it should. We should be grateful no damage occurred.
This was yesterday and the vehicle's owner wasn't going to drive it until today. I see he and the Mrs. are out and about.
No doubt the silently running power steering will blow them away.
They like to go up to a big commercial bakery. I'll bet they are bringing me a loaf of bread....and some rolls.

Sucked the reservoir dry and refilled twice with Maxlife.
I know, that's cheating. But the fluid was much better than I expected it to be.
Steers very well... All good.

Followed a cummins forum procedure on it, but basically truck has 170k miles and pump whined badly, brown color with old rubber gaskets and peices of whatever came out, I opened two hoses that were connected to the power steering cooler on the bottom of the truck, then refilled and all was good!
