Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

A have a friend who has installed stainless brake lines on his custom car, though I am pretty sure that flaring the ends created a bit of a problem, I can`t remember how he did it.

Never heard of stainless brake pipes, some people use copper but Kunifer is the stuff to go for.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have corroded brake lines on my Porsche and need to replace in Stainless steel to prevent further issues. I would like to replace the lot and am told this is quite a common fault with this model. Please can you advise the best and hopefully reasonably priced replacement lines for my car. Thanks Robert

POST 3Original post

A have a friend who has installed stainless brake lines on his custom car, though I am pretty sure that flaring the ends created a bit of a problem, I can`t remember how he did it. As Maldren suggested Kunifer would seem the way to go if corrosion avoidance is the aim. On the other hand Kunifer is softer and more susceptible to crush damage than steel..

POST 4Original post

If you're looking at replacing them all with Stainless, be prepared that it'll be an engine out, gearbox out, steering rack out, etc, etc.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
