problem
Eleven or twelve rams, one pump, and Pentosin everywhere. The most expensive ‘character’ of the R129 if you ignore the first drip.
Green fluid on the header, behind the seats, or in the spare well. Top creeps down in the sun. Sequence stalls at the same point every time. Pump that never stops whirring.
The seals in every cylinder are the same age as the car. Heat at the header cooks the front locks first; the main lifts live in a wet well and go second.
Rebuild or exchange the whole set. Doing them one at a time is how you pay for the job twice. Fluid is Pentosin CHF 11S only. After the work, resynchronise the windows and cycle the top a dozen times to purge air.
