I had a 92 900S from 1995 to 2006. Great car, Around 75,000 miles in 1998 my PS started getting cranky during winter. Left work at 8:00pm and in 20 degree temps, the PS would be knotchy and difficult until it warmed up. Boss was a car guy, Porsches, BMWS and old Healeys, he said to suction out as much PS fluid as possible and replace the fluid taken out. Repeat several times, and then every other oil change. Same with the transmission oil.
Did that, PS problem cured and that car went to 255,000 miles on the original PS pump and rack. The new fluid rejuvenated the rubber seals in the rack.
Same with the transmission. Pulling out some oil and replacing it meant I never suffered the dreaded pinion gear failure.
Oil is cheaper than parts, as Dad used to say.
