I changed my power steering fluid a couple of day ago. The car has 112k miles on it and I don't think it's ever been changed. I just used a vaccum extractor to suck out the reservoir and the return hose before filling it back up with Pentosin CHF11s. I turned the steering wheel back and forth several times to bleed it and topped it off, but the steering feels noticeably lighter to me now. Not bad, just takes less effort to turn the wheel. Anyone else experienced this? It doesn't bother me, it's just unexpected.

 

Yes, this is to be expected with fresh fluid!
