Hi I have been advised my rear brake pipe has corrosion, would anyone know where I can source the one shown in the picture, or better still a part number for it, I’ve searched online but only found the flexi hoses not the metal pipe itself. It’s a 23i E89 2010 Many thanks in advance.IMG_1014.jpegIMG_1013.jpeg
 
That’s a bitch cause the BMW solution is to supply a straight pipe that needs to be bent to shape all the way back to the DS`c.. :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:

I made a similar problem..best..imho ..to patch a new section of line in.. :thumbsup:
 
Doesn’t look corroded from the pic, have you cleaned the dirt off and had a proper look at it…?

However your springs look like ol’ Grandpa Joe’s ballsack…
 
Ah that why i couldn't find it on the parts diagrams! Its usually the section that goes over the petrol tank that fails.

It’s shown in realoem as a part….but then words explain it’s a straight pipe..

Looking at the pic..the pipe is kind of hot dipped in nylon type compound ..so I doubt very much it’s corroded..just looks like crap on top..IMHO
 
Wire brush the nut part and black paint it.
If you do remove , expect it to break off.
On mine it did, right pain trying to get flange tool on whats left.
Whole photo looks a bit sad the state it's in.
 
Thanks for the replies everyone, it is currently at Zedshed, Mike is having a bit of a mare sorting my reluctor ring and ABS sensors and he mentioned the pipe and springs on an update video. I have new springs on the way so will do them when I get my car back. I was considering giving the brake pipe a good clean, rust killer and paint, he did say they are coated so unusual for one to be like he found. It is a 2010 E89 and has done 124000 miles now on British roads so it has endured a lot. Oh he also discovered I have the wrong tyres on the rears too, 245/35/18 😟

:rofl: Yep those springs have done their last sprunging 8)
 
Stripped thread is understandable given some of the planks that are allowed to use an impact gun… :roll: but the shaft on top… :?
 
So, eight days after dropping my car off at the garage to have the reluctor rings and abs sensors replaced on the rear…IT STILL ISNT DONE 🤬 apparently started off with wrong abs sensors being delivered, then couldn’t get a driveshaft off, then that driveshaft wasn’t fit to go back on….and now 9 yes NINE wrong driveshafts have been delivered.

Talk about testing my patience, I am currently working 60 hour weeks and have a 50mile round trip commute….luckily my trusty defender hasn’t fallen apart yet 🙈
