Not sure if im off-track by stating this so no laughing please....if you are bleeding the brakes on a car with LHM then surely you will just wait until all the air bubbles have left and the 'correct' colour of the lhm fluid appears (if its been replaced) that way you know that all air is out and that the new lhm fluid is where it should be.

XM mk2 LHM change & power steering
Moderator: RichardW
So, it turns out the intake hose was somewhat damadged.
I had it replaced and the pump recondtioned.
Also the corner spheres were topped up.
Now the ride is superb and the wooshing sound of the power steering is the way i suppose it should be (only getting some quiet near the locks) and the assistance is nice and soft at all speeds.
All in all, job well done.
However i still wonder about the slow rising from the lowest position as this seems to have remained unchanged. If i revi it even the slightest i get instant body movement.
Can't help but wonder, any ideas?
The brakes were not bled but plan to do it next week.
Tnx.
