My year 2000 986 had a rear brake line advisary on its last MOT - the usual corrosion problem at the securing cleats.
Has anyone tackled this job on a 986? Note: I completely re-piped a Citroen Xantia (about 500 miles of hydraulic pipe work!!) and managed it successfully.
Any pointers greatfully received!!

Oh - and a skateboard!
 
I haven't tackled this myself but I have looked at the layout and the pipes running front to rear seem to connect into a terminal block at each end which should make replacing them a lot easier. Let me know how you get on. My 986 had an advisory a few years ago but wasn't mentioned last year when I MOT'd it
 
Many thanks - when looking underneath on a 'quick-look' all I really saw was the pipework disappearing under plastic covers. The news that they terminate in connection blocks sounds good to me. Ta!
