Default Power Steering "cleanup" ?

I had a nice call from a lady at Honda today to let me know that my car is coming up for it's MOT at the end of August, and they had a slot that I could book it in now if I wanted.
She then asked me if I wanted the power steering system cleaned for an extra

Fluid change, perhaps? Or doesn't the S2000 use hydraulic fluid for the PAS?

Fletch, perhaps she's a regular on this board and knows about your 'off-road' excursion did you get any pizza spilled under the front end?

Sounds like a con to me

I seem to remember somthing about cleaning the belts?

I'll be going into the garage soon anyway (well before MOT), I'll find out more about what it's all about and report back.

Cheers.

Fletch, I believe belts are used with hydraulic systems, not with that on the S.
