It's nice content but I can already see issues.

1) Hydraulic door switch on front left window has a worn aluminum lever (oval hole). He just adjusted the screws. WRONG! The lever should be replaced soon. See picture from my car



2) There is definitely a pressure port leak on the front left window that he is ignoring. The oil spill is already visible on the door insulation.


I think this is exactly how these cars hydraulic system should not be maintained. I'm pretty sure that more levers need replacement. Almost all pressure port seal are dead a leaking.


PS: Keeping Aeroshell Fluid 4/41 as intellectual property is the nice joke :-)
