I don't see why you'd need to change it unless there's more to it? You can drain the reservoir from one of the hard lines if you really want to and than fill. The external cooler is behind the grille.

Change/Flush Power Steering Fluid? They want to Charge you?

Take it back to your Infiniti Dealership and have them take care of it to you for free.

Tell them that you can't believe why you would be charged for this and they will do it for you as part of a warranty service.

Also, IMO 24k mile should have no affect on power steering fluid, that toxic C#%p should last longer than the car.

Check your Infiniti Owners Manual as well as to when they schedule a flush and change for this.
