Replacing the brake pipe / brake hose

Pipes are used for the pipelines of the brake system, which, together with the high-pressure brake hoses to the wheels, includes a connection from the master brake cylinder to the four wheel brakes, pipes are used.

Attention: For vehicles with ABS, use only ready-made original brake lines, in no case a product sold by the meter.

Brake hoses create flexible connections between fixed and moving parts of the vehicle.

Raise the car.

Loosen the union nuts of the brake pipe and remove it.

Close the connection point of the pipeline in the direction of the master brake cylinder with a suitable plug or first suck off the brake fluid from the expansion tank using a siphon.

Lay the new brake pipe in exactly the same place, if possible.

If the brake hose at the caliper is to be replaced, the caliper must first be removed.

Install the new brake hose so that it sags without twisting, tighten the cap nuts to 10 Nm.

Install only factory-approved brake hoses.

After installing jari unloaded wheels (the car is raised) check that the hoses follow all the movements of the wheels without hitting anything.

Attention: Brake hoses must not come into contact with oil and fuel or be varnished; or anti-corrosion coating for the bottom of the body.

Remove air from the brake system.

Lower the car.
