Hi Guys - hoping this is a quick and easy answer.
When replacing the front flexible brake lines, is there a metal 'U' clip locating the brake line in situ ( eg slides in place and on the bracket welded to the inner wing).
I can't find my P6 parts catalogue where the exploded diagrams helps with these details.
From my quick inspection (without wheel removed and looking up from the floor) - I see a lot of corrosion in this area and I would like to check the removal procedure before attempting this weekend, and try to avoid the risk of twisting the copper brake pipe or prying off the above welded support bracket when trying (wrestling with it ) to release the upper connection. - when it could be simply just removing a clip etc
If there is no sliding U clip, what holds the hose end in place before mating with the copper brake pipe and hex nut.
I presume disconnection at the lower end is more straight forward.
Many thanks in advance,
Simon
