You’re a Great Aussie Returned Bloke Garret Old Mate
Please do be careful your rear hydraulic brake proportional valve thingy on the Q hasn’t bogged up in storage whilst away

That is Great News Garret Mate, Trust me or NOT please when I say that the rear brake proportion valve thingy up higher above your rear axle/body is fantastic at high syphon holding air/crud etc…
When You do find that nipple and 99% of modern day service mechanics are lost too, a stagnant vehicle of its age will possibly require a stiff piece of say MIG wire to strategically clear its 90 degree bleed points if that makes nuffy MB sense?

Yeah sorta like the clutch bleed point under the bonnet on the passenger side. Not everyone knows about it. But before she got parked up it got it's brake fluid changed and the brake proportional valve was nice clean and free flowing. The front left bleeder seized in solid and took oil and patience to get loose. I ended up replacing all the hoses in the front end I don't wanna blow one on the highway..

you timed it perfectly with the fuel price hike. I wonder if first born sons are good for a tankful or 2?
