re: "Rebuilding the convertible top hydraulic system"
G3air,
I am still working on the problem for you. I down loaded the manual and have been trying to understand the entire operation of the top. I do not have a solution yet but unless you are in a hurry we (the group) will come up with something. I need to understand the operation for my own use also and am going to replace my top soon. this may give me insight to your problem while in the frame work.
