Very helpful. I just got my F82 brakes upgraded and thought it would be a good time to put braided lines. All went fine until right rear 11mm nut was seized. So I had to leave the rubber line on. I’m going to use your solution with a spinning HEL line. Thanks again.

The lines on my late 2005 130i are still steel, coated (magnetic). Still horribly corroded though.. but just plain old rusted unions, not an aluminium/steel galvanic reaction. Damn uk salt spreading... Not looking forward to the impending subframe swap, but hopefully this tip of yours will help - thanks! Also those Hel lines with the free-spinning ends sound like just the ticket.

Hi, do you need to refit the clip if using aftermarket hoses? Thanks

Yes, you should alway retain the clip.

I have a question if anyone can help y on the newer cars the brake pedal feels spring and smooth and gets a good bite at the first push down as of my e60 m5 don’t only when I push hard than it get a good bite I change everything and even got a new 4 piston caliper
@vysgarage2 жыл бұрын
It sounds like you air in the system or non genuine pads. Non genuine pads usually have a terrible initial bide and feel very spongy. I f the pedal sinks after initial bite, it is usually a sign of air in the system, to solve it, it’s best to perform a software bleeding procedure.

What you have said makes no sense, you have a male and a female joint, even if there was an anti rotation form in the joint the male end should still be able to be undone with the 11mm spanner.
@Ally.MacMillanАй бұрын
No, the male union is fused with the hard line so it can’t be turned, otherwise it will twist and snap the hard line. By doing it this way, he is undoing the hose by turning it (old hose) and turning the female fitting on the new hose, so the rusted male nut doesn’t have to turn.
