A quick update, changed the hydraulic cylinders over the weekend...they were both leaking from the seals. The new cylinders went in without major issues....the instructions provided by the "re-builder" in Florida where clear enough....I took an extra step (removed the rear speakers) for easy access to one of the nuts that hold the cylinders. Taking my sweet time (smoke and drink breaks)......about 3.5 hours......

BTW.....the car feels like it gain 20HP after the change......;-)

Impossible. If the dealership with a hot barista didn't do the repair and charge you book hours, it's doomed to fail.
