Yes I have a 2020 and this is the case for me. I wanted to upgrade to Motul synthetic fluid from factory stuff. I already had the dealership change out all the clutch, brake, and power-train with Motul/Redline products after break in.

Decided to do the power steering myself in this less invasive way.

Only then did I discover that filter. I have been sucking fluid out after approximately every drive when warm since I can get more out. I wasn't counting but it took me 8-10 times (days) to get a whole bottles worth. Not sure how the math works out on that.

I am contemplating doing two more bottles which will take approximately a month and hopefully get most of it out.

If I do do that, after which I will do a session approximately once every 1-2 weeks for continual renewal, probably going through a bottle every 4 months or so?

I'm not sure if I even got a couple tablespoons from the upper portion. Ya, this method would take forever.
