plateletboy 0 Posted December 18, 2007 nah, steel from the factory.... If they are all starting to look a bit bad at the rear i would advise doing them all in one go, because bleeding corrados is a pain in the ass..!! Get a roll of pipe, a £15 flaring tool from online. Its a bit of a pain to do but very satisfying... and even easier if you can get some blanking plugs to go straight in the output from the abs block so it doesnt drip fluid whilst your working... pb Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted December 19, 2007 and i tip,when you loosen any part of the hydrolic system to repair/replace ect keep the brake pedal depresed(when you loosed something) to the floor with a bar or anything to keep it down and that will stop anymore fluid dripping out while you carry on with repairs.
