Check ur hoses....

[oakley]

Sooo iv just had my solid brakes lines replaced as they were rotting through (from front of car to rear).
They also found right at the last minute that my handbrake cable had popped out of the clip its spose to be in and was rubbing on the flexi hose...this had worn all the way through and was on the very verge of splitting my hose!! Seriously check ya cables and all clipped in! U cant see the wear on the hose until u take it off completely..bloody thing coulda killed me!!

Same issue happened with my TI.

Passenger side rear rubber brake line blew, while braking hard to avoid a deer. All because the handbrake cable had came off the clip, and wore right through it!

Good advice, if you want to stop someday!
