Brake Line

Hi, Newbie here 8) I have a problem with my D3 brakes. Apparantly the brake line running from the front servo to the rear offside wheel is steel (not stainless) and has rusted where one of the mounting clips is positioned, resulting in brake fluid being pumped all over the other hoses and exhaust. My local independant is going to replace it but it appears to be a one piece line. He has proposed using standard copper brake line modelled on the existing line. Has anybody come across this problem before as it seems strange that it is just steel that would be likely to rust over a period of time. Thanks, Andrew M.

Has happened to a few so far (and likely more in the future) Your Indi is doing pretty much the same as most others will do as it happens. Thumbs Up
