    Riding long term without AHC fluid

    Thanks for reminder. Called today, guy said he wouldn't give quote for either line fix or deletion without looking at it first. I get it. But too far a trek for just a quote. There's a Land Cruiser specialist shop out in Hagerstown, MD - very familiar with AHC stuff - that basically rejected...

    Riding long term without AHC fluid

    While shopping around for someone to do the Deletion, I dropped about 2L of AHC fluid (from a 2.5L can) in the Empty reservoir. Half a Liter made it into the driveway because i couldn't get that semi-obstructive plastic piece attached to the reservoir hose to come out - the bolt holding it down...

    Going with deletion. 99 percent of the 6 thousand shops within a 1 hour driving radius don't know what or are barely familiar with AHC system .. many think I'm talking about the car vents not blowing cool air!

    Riding long term without AHC fluid

    Yeah, one if the mechanics said the pump is toast. But again, if not looking to repair lines (or pump), I'm wondering how useful/capable are current OE struts and shocks and springs - do they operate at like 80 percent without AHC running through them, or do they degrade rapidly and fail...

    Riding long term without AHC fluid

    Hey all, 2014 570LX leaking AHC fluid from rusty lines and rusted rear shocks. Reservoir empty. Not really feeling difference in suspension performance, not especially rough or bouncy or anything. Outraged by price given to replace lines especially because I don't care about height control. I...
