Do you know where I can get a set of replacement brake hoses for my 2.9 S? Front and rear.

What are the part numbers and likely cost?

I'm looking for the braided ones, I'm going to change the fluid so thought it would be a good opportunity to make sure the flexible pipes are all up to scratch.

Thanks

Hi Colin I'm sure Tower View sell them as a package..

I had my fronts replaced to braided by Austec during a service..(hang on I'll check what they charged me.............................................................................)


I'm back.

S Braided Hose Kit...........£48.25 + VAT
Kunifer 3/16 OD & Unions.....£17.38 + VAT
Brake Fluid..................£9.00 + VAT


Not sure where they sourced them from though...

If you have removed the originals, I'm sure a cheaper option is to go to a local Hydraulics supplier and have some made up.

IIRC Mike Goodall from The Berks region done exactly that....HERE
Drop him a line...He's only in Newbury...!

Hope this helps

Hi, I just got a set for my S3 from brakes direct, or what ever the link was. The guy was excellent, but the set didn't fit at all. I sent back my old ones and he matched them. So, beware when ordering, check what is coming.
