I have just serviced our D4s. The breather was indeed robbery but I can’t imagine how you have managed to clean them.
They appear to be a white plastic mesh cylinder on the internal diameter giving the filter its form with a type of coarse material on the outside diameter. It feels like there is some sort of sponge / fibre sandwiched between the white mesh and the outer material. The whole lot is then 'potted' with epoxy or similar into discs forming the ends of the cylinder.
How do you folks clean them? I can see that a toothbrush and degreaser will sort the white internal mesh but I can see how to clean the internal filling with any degree of confidence as they will not come apart as they are potted at the ends. Am I missing something?
Also, VP recommends changing them either annually or every 200hrs (which ever is the sooner). Surly on this type of item, life must be more running hours than elapsed time dependent?
