probrox Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 (edited) Just failed my MOT today on the passenger side front brake flexi. Does anyone know if the NA hose is the same as the TT or UK spec, and if I'm likely to find anywhere that has them in stock. Tried Toyota but they have to order and Unipart only list the hose for the rear on the import. Bloke said he would fit it and give me a free retest tonight if i can find the hose in time.

bignum Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 I would imagine they`re the same, this could be an excuse to drop some braided ones on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
probrox Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 :(I'd put anything on if i could get it today. Unfortunately everyone except toyota says they only have listings for the rear hoses and that the fronts are toyota only parts. Doesn't look like i'll get my free retest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

probrox Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 Problem is I didn't have any way of getting back from the garage without the car so had to bring it away with me. Once the car has left the garage it has to have at least a partial retest which is chargeable. Unfortunately makes little difference as Mr T can't get me a brake line until Saturday morning. Can't really complain though as I was expecting to fail on suspension components or at least some worn bushes or a wheel bearing. Looks like it will be cheaper than anticipated.
