Hej!
Läste detta, känns lite märkligt att det påstås att det inte behövs.

Någon med koll som kan reda ut detta - behövs eller inte?

Apparently, I’ve been guilty of wasting time, effort, money, and oil on this one. According to Sorbo, modern oils don’t lose viscosity or break down – and by modern oils, he means oils produced in the past 20 years or so. To test his theory, he took apart a Penske shock that was 14 years old and compared the oil from inside the shock to fresh replacement oil. When backlit, it looked almost the same. Next, he had it tested, and it was still good to go, according to the Silkolene factory in England. He followed up with a test at the Lucas Products factory in California. How did he know the oil hadn’t been changed in 14 years? Well, he had knowledge of the shock through its 14-year life (being the first owner), so he could be certain of the oil’s history.
For street riders, Sorbo says the oil doesn’t need to be changed unless the seals start to leak, since fresh oil will be part of the seal repair, anyway. He explains that the recommendation of frequent oil changes for street riders is simply “bullshit propagated by guys who have suspension shops who want more work.”
