Indeed

although only place to get a new one is BMW and thats £180!

I would take it to a hydraulics place but its so corroded and manky i doubt theres much they can do.

Is that including the labour or are you doing it yourself? There's some local specialists about down here, maybe you could get it done at one of those cheaper.

Doing the work myself.

when mine went on my volvo I thought the exact same thing - that there'd be nothing they could do with it...

but I popped into the local Pirtek depo anyway (I know someone there anyway) and they did it in about 5 min flat with a bit of hose rated up to crazy pressure....

if they're connecting it to your old bit of metal pipe they'll want you to sign something to say there's no guarantee and it's your responsibility... but that's just so you can;t sue if it goes in the future....


£180 is a bit of a sting when you just bought the car.... but it's not the end of the world if the rest of the car is good.... it could have been a lot more money/time etc...
