lol whats funny is it doesnt actually say you should replace anything... lol

id fill up the resivior as full as you can get it... and see if your losing any fluid somewhere. usually where your losing the fluid is where its drawing the air. although... it could be a blockage... but you wouldve noticed it more frequent.. it takes alot to block a half inch hose like that.

id check those lines for any signs of a hole or something like that. it couldve rubbed something and wore a hole in it over time... anything is possible
