Just a heads up Guys.
If your changing the hoses,you might want to consider changing the brake fluid to Dot 4.1,or Dot 5.1. The drawback with 5.1 is it should be changed yrly, whereas the 4.1 can be changed in line with your servicing. |

Same here, and not far off new pads / discs on the rear so i might as well change all around and do the hoses at the same time

5.1 - AP Racing. Or Motul do a 4.0 & a 5.1 fluids. There is only one brake reservoir,so the fluid will be the same front - back. Allow 3 litres for a proper job,a Dealer will typically use 1. |

Boiled fluid is the only real cause of a soft pedal. The oem lines are adequate for almost all use, including track work. The main reason people think the lines have made an improvement is because you have to use new fluid when you fit them. And THAT is why they suddenly feel better

For the record I've used performance fluid on a car with rubber hoses and I still got a spongy pedal after repeated hard use on track. Also rubber hoses deteriorate over time and become brittle.

I'm waiting to get a reply from my Looney. Once he has confirmed I'll update. Should be in the next few weeks.

Is that for a full set, ie 4 hoses, or were you referring to a pair? |
