Hi All. Looking for any recommendations for mechanics/shops that can do a proper AHC fluid flush. I am in the Springs but any area up to Denver would be fine. My regular shops is not comfortable doing the flush so looking for recommendations. I had it done at the dealer at the 60K service but I am sure it was not a full flush. This is for a 2013 LX

Also, if there are folks in the CoS/Denver area who have done this on their own I would pay you for your time to assist me with it. When it gets a bit warmer of course.

Don't let all talk of bad flushes intimidate you. If you can perform an oil change, you can flush the AHC in your own garage. The process is simple. The only thing you really have to be concerned with is completely draining the reservoir. Preventing that is just a matter of topping it off after you drain each accumulator. All too often shop guys jump right in and drain all four corners without adding fluid along the way, once you do that, it's over. The tank is dry, you have allowed air ingress, sediment in the bottom of the tank to travel down the lines, and potentially contaminated the teensy tiny filters in the AHC pump.
 
Rehashing this for any updated input from folks. I have successfully performed an AHC flush on my LX in the past, but I believe I'm now due for a globe replacement. I'm hoping to find someone in the Denver/Western Slope area that is familiar and can do this for me as I simply don't have the time, despite it being in my wheelhouse of ability. Does anyone have any recent experience doing this?

Thanks!
