Orright, orright, I know; self praise is no recommendation but I've spent today (last night your time) [:D][:D] pumping grease into my rear swing arm bearings and flushing LHM through the front struts and I've been told by my two BX driving sons that my BX is now by far the smoothest they've ever driven in. What makes this so incredible is that it's a 16V; the one with the rough ride reputation, so when you get the chance, I'd suggest this for any and every BX. The results are remarkable. I don't know if it has any bearing (no pun intended) on things, but we replaced the BX seals with CX ones as they can be pumped until they let air or grease out which means the grease is fully penetrating the bearing at the rear. Being in a much drier climate than you guys, it means that if I pump them up with grease a couple of times a year, that should be enough to pump any moisture that may get in, out again. In a wetter clime, it may have to happen more often if the CX seals are used.
For those who haven't already seen.
