EnZed in Canberra have a tester so I paid $10 to get them tested and they passed fine - never leaked a drop yet and they're visually checked each major service point and fluid changed every 12 mths. Flexi lines fray or get small cracks in them when they're getting tired, up until then not a lot of diff between new & old other than a bit of dirt.

Why don't you just call a hose guy to come and fit brand new ones, made on the spot. Can't understand using second hand, worn, soft hoses myself??
