Very true, worth every penny to not have brake fluid running down your armpit while laying on your back trying to work that bleeder screw up in that tight area.

I had a motor on one fail and it was definitely coated with carbon. I'm sure regular cleaning extends their life. The new motor also had a different internal design, so they may be built better now.
