Then do this. Call Dye up, ask for customer service. Then tell them this. You have taken it to a pro-shop they have accesed the marker and they told you that you had to send it into dye. Im sure dye will accept and you will have to send it to them and in a matter of days dye will send it back repaired im sure.

2. Call Dye. Send them the gat. Beg for a brand new Dm4/5. I was having the same problems as you and I told scott about it and I got a brand spankin new gun.

Hoses? What hoses on a DM?
Anyway, try replacing the on/off's orings too. That can cause solenoid leaking.

try resetting your low pressure reg to factory starting point.
go to http://forums.matrixowner.com for info on how to do this. noids will only leak if over-pressurized by the lpr. a different bolt will not correct or cause this. dont give up. if necessary, my local store has a matrix tech, or i can look at it. i love my dm4, and it is the most dependable gun i have ever had. i gas it and go. thats all.
are you sure it is from the noid? noid leaks are in the grip frame. leaking fron the barrel, and out the back of the gun are fron the bolt, not noid. you greasing correctly? you barely use any grease at all on the bolt. if you grease the o-rings it is pretty much all you need.
please send me an IM if you need more help, and ill see what i can do.
