Power steering flush? 2003 wanting to update to ATF+4

I think your gen iii came from the factory with the ATF +4 even though manuals say otherwise. I did the turkey baster method to change the fluid out in my ’08 and all is fine. 🙂

I think 03s didn’t but I will confirm in a couple days

Will be real easy to find out as the ATF +4 is red in color.

Picking up a low mileage 2003, I am assuming it probably still has the original fluid in it. I want to do a flush on the power steering and update it to the ATF+4. Is it okay to do the method where you take some fluid out of the reservoir, add new fluid in, turn wheels a few times, repeat 3 to 4 times or do I need to do a complete flush where I have to disconnect the line?

Thanks
