hydraflush
how good really is hydraflush?setting aside the imagined benefits,is it really the miracle cleaner that it is supposed to be?i would like to know the genuine answer to this question before i buy some so can somebody help me please?thanks
When I first bought the xant i did a fluid change and against advice, swopped for straight LHM, When I checked 3 weeks later the new fluid was filthier than before it was changed , due the new stuff stirring the crap up a bit.
Replaced with hydraflush and left it in for 1500-2000 miles and swopped again this time bleeding the brakes (as per Anders dk helpfull instructions) 3 months later the fluid still looks like it just came out the bottle, the suspension also has a more fluid movement when going up and down and when height correcting etc, Definately recommended for the money (£15 for 5 litres)

i can strip out the parts so on 2 replies it sounds as though it is a worthy bit of maintenance.where can i read what's on the box before i buy so that i know what it does?

Ah, that was purely rhetorical [;)] There is not even a box - 'tis an unfair world [:(]
Hydraflush / Hydraurincage good stuff, though - think senna pods for oleopneumatics!

I have to admit, I am surprised with hydraflush. Was having trouble with my BX, 18 months & 20,000 miles after the LHM was changed, mainly with heavy steering.
Drained out old LHM which was yellow, cleaned out the filters (which were not very cruddy), refilled with Hydraflush - steering is perfect & suspension rises quicker than ever before. My only fear is when I refil with LHM in 2,500 miles time, it will revert to its old ways!!
