Title: Rear brake hoses
Post by: Webrondek on November 10, 2014, 13:51
Hi All
On checking my rear calipers I discovered cuts to both rear flexible hoses.
This happens under suspension compression and caused by the bracket
where the flexible pipe connects to the rigid pipe.The cuts approx 20mm
are on the blind side so not easy to see. Up to my purchase car had been
serviced at main dealers and passed MOT earlier this year.
