rear brake issues

[agentorange]

Hey there i have just joined the forum, great to see there are so many people on here, i have just started taking on changing my rear brakes but when i took off the caliper the fluid pipe snapped, i was wondering if this is a common fault and weather or not it is an easy fix?

Mine did that to, not sure its common but the only option is to replace the pipe its about £20 from the dealers, and takes about 10 mins to change.

Thanks alot, for that info, do you know if they are likely to hold them in stock? i will get in touch with my dealer first thing in the morning, i need to be back on the road by friday morning so need to know if i need to get my other car out of winter hibernation

No idea mate, they should be able to get it for Friday though.
