Comment Re:Warning! Hydraulic suspension is prone to failu (Score 1) 243

I don't know about Mercedes, but the hydraulic suspension systems on citroen vehicles actually was very reliable and problem free if and only if it would get the right kind of maintenance, like changing hydraulic fluid every 60.000km and cleaning the filters and checking the pressure on the pressure spheres. Although easy to fix, most garages would not know about this or charge rediculous prices for it, lease companies don't care, so the cars have a bad reputation and can be bought cheap with totally clogged hydraulics and no suspension at all.

like knowing about boolean algebra & bit setting (a | 14) bit resetting (a & ~(14)) etc. I notice with myself at 44 that I stop giving a shit about new stuff like smartphones and java and apps and building websites. I graduated technical school just before the internet became a thing. And I stopped gaming in the 80486 era. Now get off my lawn.
