Hi,

Im not the most technical with descriptions so bear with me on this...

Driving home last night, approaching a roundabout i pressed the break only for it to hit the floor and nothing happen... luckily nothing coming so no harm done.

I located the problem to a split flexi pipe on the front passenger side.

Basically the part i have removed is... The metal bracket thing that was attached to the hard/metal break pipe... the flexi pipe attached to it, another bracket, the flexi pipe attached to it, and the final bracket that was attached to the hard line.

I hope that makes sense??

So does anybody have this part? Needed asap so i can get the car up and running again.

If needs be i can get a picture of the part tonight when I finish work

The car is a 2004 import with Brembos.

Thanks

Martin

Yeah, basically the pipe had frayed / split near the join on the bracket. Luckily Alex had some some spares from changing to BBK's. Quick and easy swap over followed by a full bleed and all sorted again. Somehow no harm done!
