So what does this vacuum pipe do-

[R-Sport.]

I forgot to ask birchdown what this does actually- but they say I need one-

Its square & should be round-

Can I change this AFTER I do the brakes- will it matter
thanks

Thats the brake servo vac feed... pretty important.

Can be changed and looks damaged. They do melt when the cars are thrashed which leaves you with a rock solid brake pedal that does nothing or brakes that lock on... scarey

How long does it take to remove + fit-
thanks

I think this pipe is actually melted a bit on my car!

Also interested in fitting

20-30 mins if you've never done one before. Awkward more than anything as it disappears behind the sound deadending before connecting to the servo.

Is it just a case of pulling it off and fitting the new one?

 

[bmh.01]

Pretty much.

These are so much fun to do lol

Hope you've got hands like a 5 year old...
