Just followed the above procedure. The roof works perfectly now. Excellent site.

I tried the one in the manual with no success. I eventually found that the one in the pic I’ve attached is the easiest one to use. I bought a meat basting syringe and it worked really well. Tilt the pump so the reservoir is at the bottom and just syringe the oil in. Works great.

Brilliant write up in this topic. Just fixed my 2002's roof using this guide
Thank you so much for this addition too... there's no ball ball bearing behind that one, so no pressure needed Much easier than removing the reservoir!Murf wrote: ↑Sun Oct 10, 2021 4:56 am I tried the one in the manual with no success.
