Front Brake Hose/Flexi Replacement

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

In this video I show how I replace my brake hoses on my Vauxhall Cavalier, it includes how I annealed the copper washers, this process should be similar for most makes and models of cars.
If you found this video entertaining or informative then consider buying me a coffee (or a cup of tea in my case 😁)

    Appreciate the video Steve, all good info and clear step by step instructions on changing the brake hoses. I can't see you having any trouble with the MOT, it looks spotless underneath. I must say I don't think I've ever seen a brake pipe union release so easily (testament to the condition) usually they are rusted solid and if they do move the pipe comes with it!

    Hi Andy, thank you mate! No all good on the MOT thanks yes unfortunately the pipes was to easy to film really in a way it’s a shame as I would like to show how I get round when I struggle with these. Oh well it makes a good video of how it all comes apart anyway. Cheers mate hope all is well with you. Steve.

    @@Cavalier_Steve Hi Steve, lol I know the feeling I had done a few videos like that thinking I was going to have to show a bit of effort to do something but it just came off in one go. Glad you got your MOT and happy motoring too! All good here, just very busy with car stuff but taking a wee break after all the omega work.

    Thanks Alan, I do a lot of this work on my drive way, I keep the car in a relatives garage when I’m not using it over winter. I would always be interested in how you get on though, the more you do the more you do the more you learn how to overcome issues that you’re faced with. It’s all part of the fun 😊

    Hi Steve hope you are keeping ok buddy I assume you have been busy as usual lately🤔you can't be to careful when it comes to brake maintenance so it's not something I normally tackle these days but you did a great job on the hoses Steve, your Cavalier is looking nice so lets hope she goes through the MOT without any problems🤞👍 I had a nice surprise when I got my insurance renewal quote for my SLK as it's £10 cheaper than last year😲😎thanks Steve it's great to see another video from you👍

    Hi John, nice to hear from you mate! I’ve been feeling guilty for not being on IG much I have been so busy lately I think I’m pushing myself whilst the weather is good! Cavalier MOT went ok thank you and thanks for the big up as well. You was lucky with your car insurance mine went up on all of my cars 😢 Hopefully more consistent will come in the future, I’ve half done my next welding video I have more work I want to do before I start to editing it ☺️ Cheers mate hope everything going ok with you.

    You want me to take advice from a person who can't even SPELL "brake". Nope.

    I would keep your small minded comments to yourself. Anyone that’s puts anything on KZread to help out others shows a certain amount of courage and should be commended not belittled by a small minded individual who feels that they should put someone down. Anyway good informative video, nice pace to help out anyone who is new to car mechanics.
