Thanks

Luvax dampers typically use hydraulic fluid. Topping up can often be done on the car, but it's important to consult your vehicle's manual or a mechanic for specific guidance.

You're correct in your understanding of Luvax dampers. They typically use hydraulic fluid or oil for topping up. The specific fluid type may vary depending on the vehicle and the age of the dampers, so consulting your vehicle's service manual or seeking advice from a vintage car specialist is a good practice to ensure you use the recommended fluid.
Topping up hydraulic dampers can be done on the car, but it can be a complex process, especially for vintage or classic cars. It's best handled by a knowledgeable mechanic or specialist who has experience with these types of suspension components. They will have the expertise to properly assess the condition of the dampers, identify any potential issues, and ensure that the topping-up process is performed correctly.
Improper maintenance of hydraulic dampers can lead to suspension problems and compromise the handling and safety of the vehicle, so it's important to entrust this task to someone with the necessary skills and experience.
