Product Description
This Brake Pipe is specifically designed for the ABS and ESP module of Citroën and Peugeot vehicles, primarily fitting the Citroën C5 models produced between 2005 and 2007. It plays a critical role in ensuring reliable hydraulic pressure transmission within the braking system, contributing to optimal braking performance and vehicle safety.
If you are unsure about compatibility with your vehicle, please provide your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) in the order notes. We will verify the part’s suitability to ensure you receive the correct brake pipe.
Replacement and Maintenance
This brake pipe is a common wear component in braking systems exposed to high pressure and varying temperatures. Over time, the pipe can develop leaks or corrosion, compromising brake efficiency. Replacement is recommended immediately after any signs of brake fluid leakage, decreased brake responsiveness, or during regular brake system maintenance, typically every 5 to 7 years depending on vehicle use and environmental conditions.
Installation requires safely relieving brake system pressure and draining brake fluid before removing the old pipe. Proper torque specifications must be followed when fitting the new pipe to prevent leaks and ensure system integrity. It is advisable for professional mechanics or experienced DIY enthusiasts to perform this replacement.
