    Because most manufacturers say you should change the engine oil annually if you don't reach the required mileage

    Timmah's videos are overall pretty good for referencing real visuals of how things are attached/connected/etc - better than the service manual and part diagrams.... but his process in the PS flush video is trash. Spraying/spashing everywhere... running the pump dry ...

    I had NO issues flushing this way - all I did was jack up the front wheels and with the engine off turned from lock to lock to fully flush out all of the old fluid. I only went through 1 new quart of PS fluid.
