Suck out some fluid and top up wait a few days days suck out some more and top again. I would do this maybe like 3 or 4 times.

Honda power steering systems require a specific fluid. It is not the ATF used by most manufacturers including Nissan and Infiniti. I would not use the Asian PS fluid. It is quite different from ATF.

Valvoline Max Life synthetic ATF fits the specification, so that is what I’ll be using since it’s widely available and cost effective.

Curious how does steering rack leak happen at your mileage? City driving? Hitting curbs? Harsh weather?

I just bought a 2013 g37s 60k miles

I'm curious cus every car I ever bought used at high mileage had problems like that.

But my nissan maxima I bought at 40k miles and driven until 150k never had those issues at all.
