Late model P/S fluid reservoir

ZoomZ

HI Guys,

I have 17 Nismo. I wanted to ask guy/gals who have a late model, if they have encountered or what I see in my Power Steering reservoir.

I wanted to do the simple flush method of suck out, fill, drive, suck out procedure as I have done with My Mo and X.

However, when I proceeded to drain my Z reservoir, I noticed that there is an internal, NON removable screen half way down. At least that's what it appears to be.

I cannot drain the fluid from below this screen. I looked for openings to get a smaller tube in, but no joy.

If this is the case, it leaves me the only option of removing return hose and draining entire reservoir. Unfortunately, it will require the removal of R/H air box. This will suck as I would have to disconnect this hose 4 times to get proper drain/flush.

Is this the case with earlier models? Youtube shows standard Nissan reservoirs which can be completely sucked out. I am guessing 2014 or 2015 models and up may have my style.
