The brake pipes are corroded and as a reult it has failed its MOT. Any idea how much I could be looking at to get them replaced? Nissan reckon about £450!

Cheers turb0z :D

Anyone...?

where abouts on the car are they? front or rear ? I had to replace the rear ones on the car due to rust

Three have failed? But definitely the ones that pass over the diff.

You have to lower the whole subframe to get at them. Once thats done its pretty easy to change the offending pipes..pita ..time consuming though as I done it myself

Did this on my old UK TT, what a b@stard to do!!

not much fun im afraid bud, but in all honesty DIY with patience and a flaring tool

My Z failed on all metal brake pipes..( some were not that bad ) 2 garages wouldn't entertain doing them as it was too time consuming.. Ended of doing them myself PITA job but managed to do them without dropping the subframe.. ( just the exhaust back boxes were removed for access )

I haven't got the time to do them myself, moving house by the 24th July so need to get someone else to do it and then sell her.
