Owner's manual doesn't say anything flushing the power steering fluid. So many different answers, is flushing regularly necessary, or just top up?

Hello, I'm Danny.

My personal opinion to answer your question is no. There is no reason to perform a power steering fluid flush. The only reason to perform such a thing is if there is a leak in the system caused dirt or debris to enter the system causing contamination. It is not necessary. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
