The owners manual indicates, for Canada, every 64000km/40000 miles. So you are due if you follow the owners manual. For this I use synthetic transmission fluid

I do a drain (more of suck up) and fill Dexron III every oil change. Keeps the PS fluid pinkish.

I'm using Royal Purple synthetic transmission fluid in the transmission and power steering. Royal Purple is also Toyota approved like Mobile 1 and Amsoil

I have been using Mobil 1 ATF for my Power Steering Fluid for well over 5 years. Just a very smooth feeling on the wheel with it, not too heavy.
