To perform the work you will need a special key for brake pipe fittings.
Removal
1. Prepare the car for work (see "Preparing the car for maintenance and repair").
2. Clean the brake hose and tube connections from dirt and corrosion. Treat the tube fittings with penetrating lubricant.
Warning! When performing the following operation, make sure that when unscrewing the nipple, the tube does not rotate with it. If the tube is "stuck" in the nipple, replace it.
3. Hold the top end of the hose from turning with an open-end wrench by 15 mm, using a special key, loosen the tube fitting.
4. Finally, unscrew the nipple with an open-end wrench by 10 mm.
5. To prevent brake fluid leakage, place a protective cap on the end of the brake pipe for the bleed nipple of the working cylinder.
6. Remove the upper end of the brake hose from the hole in the body bracket.
7. In a similar manner, unscrew the tube from the lower end of the brake hose and release it, removing it from the hole in the bracket installed on the rear axle beam.
8. Remove the hose from the car.
Installation
1. Install the hose in reverse order.
2. Remove air from the brake hydraulic drive (see "Hydraulic brake drive - bleeding") and check the brake hose and tube connections for leaks.
