Tom21 10 Report post Posted June 9, 2020 Has anyone else had any issues with Hel (or other brands) braided brake lines? I was sat in a carpark and pressed on the brakes to hear my front right line burst! It could've been a lot worse. I don't think they were installed wrong as I know the mechanic and he knows they can't have a torsional forces on them.It broke just after the body side fitting, right where the braided line starts.

nerdstrike 186 Report post Posted June 9, 2020 Until evidence to the contrary, it sounds like a manufacturing defect. I've heard of lines abraiding on the suspension when they're not the right length, but not rupturing like this. 1 Tom21 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tweedbean 151 Report post Posted June 9, 2020 Strange, I've only heard good things about their lines, they are very popular in the new mini space and not heard of any failing. Hope you get it sorted. 1 Tom21 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
