Replacing brake hoses, bleeding brakes on a VAZ 2110
What to do if you need to change some part on your car, but you don’t know how to approach it, where to start, and indeed where it is located? But what if, according to the regulations of your car, it’s time to change consumables, but you don’t know what it is? Well, in the end, what if your vehicle simply won’t start? You can learn about all this and much more without leaving your home, or even your car! You just need to go to the CAR.RU website, to the “car repair” section and find the instructions you need, similar to those outlined below.
If you made your next trip to a service station and found out there that when checking the brake hoses (TB) by auto mechanics, it was discovered that they were in very poor condition, then this problem needs to be dealt with somehow.
With a problem like this, you simply won’t be able to drive a car. Such things are no joke! That is, it is necessary to change the TS immediately and urgently. You can see with your own eyes exactly how the TC is changed on the domestically produced VAZ-2110 car.
Since this will air the system, it will be necessary to bleed the brakes. There is nothing criminal here, you will cope with this task.
A small educational program:
In any braking system, one of the main elements is the brake hoses. These are multilayer flexible tubes made of especially durable polymer materials. The strength of these tubes is determined by the fact that during operation they are subject to high pressures and hydraulic loads. Modern materials and manufacturing methods make it possible to produce reinforced tubes that are durable and have a long service life.
Brake pipes and hoses, almost always, at least in the technical regulations for servicing any car, you will not find any mention of their replacement. But, like all parts of the brake system, they must be inspected by a specialist at every maintenance. And on cars older than ten years, it’s worth paying extra attention to these components. We are talking about brake pipes and hoses, details that are inconspicuous, reliable, but nevertheless not at all eternal.
Purpose of the brake hose
The brake hose is designed to quickly transmit impulse to the wheel brake cylinders. At the moment when the driver presses the brake pedal, a pressure pulse through the brake fluid is transmitted through the brake hoses to the wheel cylinders, which already act directly on the pads. The pads, in contact with the brake drum (brake disc), create friction, which sharply reduces the speed of the car.
All car enthusiasts know very well that a serviceable and well-functioning braking system is a guarantee of safety on the road. When just one element is damaged, the operation of the entire system is disrupted. If the brake hoses are faulty, the brake system may fail with very dire consequences. This is why it is so important to check the serviceability of brake hoses in a timely manner. Indicators of serviceability are : elasticity of all brake hoses; absence of even small cracks on their surface; reliable holding of hoses on the tips; perfect condition of the threads on the tubes.
Changing the technical gear on a VAZ-2110 car
Purchase the necessary items in advance:
- two keys (a key for “fifteen” and a split key for “ten”);
- set of TS (front and rear);
- jack and wheel wrench (remove the wheel).
Instructions:
- Jack up the vehicle, install jack stands, and remove the wheel.
- Holding it at “fifteen” with the aforementioned wrench and unscrewing it with a special wrench, remove the hose tip.
- Plug the opened hole with a cap.
- Unscrew the hose from the caliper.
- Install the new hose in the reverse order, without twisting it.
Bleeding brakes on a VAZ-2110 model car
Purchase the items you need in advance:
- brake fluid;
- thin rubber tube (preferably transparent);
- empty bottle (transparent);
- key to "eight";
- assistant (we recommend, however, that you can bleed the brakes without his help).
Follow the instructions below carefully:
First, loosen the bleeder fitting.
Secondly, put the tube on the fitting and lower the other end into the bottle.
Thirdly, check the fluid level in the tank; if it is not enough, add it.
Fourthly, the assistant presses the brake pedal three times, keeping it depressed on the last press.
Fifthly, unscrew the fitting with the “eight” key.
Sixth, when the pedal becomes soft and falls through, tighten the fitting.
Seventh, repeat steps four through six several times until the liquid poured into the bottle flows without air bubbles.
You can learn how to carry out this procedure using the video “Bleeding the brakes on a VAZ.” Good luck and fair wind!
Jack up and remove the wheel.
Again, take the key for “fifteen” and a special key for unscrewing the brake pipes.
We hold the hose first, and unscrew the tube with the second. The latter should not rotate, only its tip.
They turned it off and it started flowing. We plug it with a standard rubber cap from the bleeder fitting.
Now unscrew the hose from the brake caliper.
Old and new hoses.
Immediately before purchasing, focus on the surface indicated by the arrow in the image. It must have high precision surface treatment, without marks or burrs.
A clear and obvious sign that the hose needs to be changed (cracked).
Install the new hose in reverse order. IMPORTANT! The wheel is straight, the hose must not be twisted along its axis! To do this, we do not twist the hose, but only the tip of the tube.
When the hoses are replaced, air remains in the system. The latter, of course, needs to be eliminated. Bleeding: first equip yourself with new brake fluid, a thin rubber hose, preferably a transparent empty bottle and an “eight” key.
We break the tightness of the fitting, but do not unscrew it.
We put one end of the hose on the fitting, and lower the other into an empty vessel. We put an open-end wrench for “eight” on the fitting.
If necessary, add liquid to the tank. Bleeding: An assistant presses the brake pedal all the way 3 times and on the third time keeps the pedal pressed, and you loosen the fitting half a turn. Liquid pours into the container, the pedal has failed, tighten the fitting back, pump it. Repeat this procedure six to ten times until liquid flows out of the tube without bubbles.
Before bleeding the rear brakes, drive a screwdriver into the sorcerer.
Remove the rear wheel.
The pumping principle is the same. We advise you to start bleeding from the furthest wheel from the GTZ: right rear, left rear, right front, left front. Check the brake fluid level in the reservoir, check for leaks “by eye” and test brake in a safe place.
Reasons for replacement
Brake hoses are designed to carry brake fluid from the master cylinder, through the brake lines, to the brake wheel cylinders under high pressure and temperature. They work constantly in moving suspension elements, therefore they are made elastic from a rubber compound.
VAZ 2110 brake system diagram
The main reasons for replacing brake hoses on a VAZ 2110 car are:
- the presence of cracks on the outer part during bending;
- abrasions on suspension elements;
- brake fluid leaking from the splined joints of the tube;
- in more rare cases, a defect may occur as a result of a foreign body entering while driving on the road (crushed stone, stones, snow, ice, etc.);
- Also, in exceptional cases, the inner part of the hose peels off (it is not possible to detect it visually), in this case a blockage occurs inside and liquid does not pass through it; it is revealed during dismantling.
Replacement and installation
We put the car on a jack or lift, remove the wheel, for ease of access we unscrew the wheel in the opposite direction from the side of the hose being replaced. Use a 15mm wrench to hold the edge of the inner part of the hoses and use a 10mm wrench to unscrew the fitting. We put a rubber cap on the tip of the tube, removed from the bleeder fitting on the working brake cylinder on the wheel, no matter how much brake fluid flows. We take out the hose from the bracket on the shock absorber and use a 15 wrench to unscrew the fitting from the working brake cylinder. If the copper ring remains on the cylinder, remove it and thoroughly clean the area of dust and dirt before installation. If you don’t have a new copper ring, you can put in an old one, pre-treat it with sandpaper and level the surface. Installation is carried out in reverse order. It is important that after installation the new hose should not be twisted and when turning the wheel in any direction it should not touch the vehicle’s suspension elements.

Required replacement parts
To replace the tube on a VAZ 2110, you need a new hose with a copper ring - gasket, a jack, a wheel wrench, a 15 wrench, a 10 wrench (if it is difficult to unscrew the 10 fitting, you need a 10 pentagonal wrench). To bleed the brake system, you will need a 8mm wrench, a thin rubber hose 15–20 centimeters long and a transparent bottle with a capacity of 0.5 liters.

Replacement and installation
We put the car on a jack or lift, remove the wheel, for ease of access we unscrew the wheel in the opposite direction from the side of the hose being replaced. Use a 15mm wrench to hold the edge of the inner part of the hoses and use a 10mm wrench to unscrew the fitting.

It is important that after installation the new hose should not be twisted and when turning the wheel in any direction it should not touch the vehicle’s suspension elements.
Bleeding the brake circuit
Now it’s time to bleed the brake system of the VAZ 2110. If you only changed one hose, then you can bleed only one side on which you changed it. Add brake fluid to the level in the reservoir under the hood. We unscrew the fitting 8 on the working brake cylinder, on the wheel half a turn and put on the hose. We lower the second part of the hose into a bottle that should contain some brake fluid, the other end of the hose should be immersed in the liquid. To bleed, an assistant is needed; he sits in the driver's seat and presses the brake pedal several times until liquid comes out of the tube lowered into the brake fluid without air bubbles. When the fluid flows, you need to leave the brake pedal pressed, then tighten the fitting to 8. Release the pedal, clean the bleeding areas and connections from brake fluid and dirt, and press the brake pedal forcefully several times and check for brake fluid leaks.
Nuances
If both tubes are being replaced, then bleeding must be done sequentially - the front right wheel, then the front left one.
When replacing the rear brake hose of a VAZ 2110, the replacement principle is the same, except that on the rear hose on both sides there is a 10-point fitting and a 15-point key. Also, to replace the rear hose, you need a pit or a lift (theoretically, you can replace it on the ground, but this extremely inconvenient).
You can independently replace drum brake discs with disc brakes using this article: https://vazweb.ru/desyatka/tormoza/zadnie-diskovye-tormoza.html
When bleeding the entire brake system on a VAZ 2110, the algorithm is the same. But you will need to remove the rear wheels, and bleeding is carried out in the following order: rear left wheel, front right, rear right, front left.

Replacing brake hoses on VAZ 2110, VAZ 2111, VAZ 2112
As a rule, brake hoses that are made of good rubber and are not kinked anywhere during installation will last quite a long time. There are two reasons for their failure: 1) age and mileage; at high mileage, the hoses constantly move and are subject to greater pressure; 2) prolonged idleness of the car leads to hardening of the rubber and cracks.
Note! You will need the following tools: a special wheel bleed wrench (full name: brake pipe wrench), wrenches and screwdrivers.
Location of hoses
Front wheel drive vehicles use two brake hoses at the front and two at the rear. In the front part they are easy to find and convenient to change; just remove the wheels and they will appear before your eyes (shown in the top photo). And in the back you will need to crawl under the car. In this case, it is better to use the inspection hole and unscrew the fastening nuts (see bottom photo).
When to change?
Once a year, or just when you have to remove the front wheels, monitor the condition of the hoses. No one will tell you the specific mileage for replacement. The manufacturer actually recommends changing them after 125,000 km or 5 years of operation. At such values it is necessary to do this, but the hoses can become unusable much faster. Therefore, keep an eye on them, and if you find any swelling, severe abrasions, cracks, or delamination of rubber, replace them immediately.
Replacing brake pipes on VAZ 2110, VAZ 2111, VAZ 2112
Welcome! Brake pipes - unlike brake hoses, they do not crack over time, because the pipes are made of metal, and besides, they are not so easy to break (We are not talking about brake hoses at all, because they are easier to break and are more susceptible to deformation), that’s why tubes are used in a car, and hoses are only placed at the end, most often this occurs on the front wheels, because the wheels turn when the steering wheel is rotated and if tubes are installed instead of hoses, they will simply burst and you will be left without a braking system.
Note! Why do the tubes change at all? Most often this happens precisely during the replacement of brake hoses, because the tubes burst (namely their tips) and in this case you cannot do without replacement; in order to replace the tubes, you need to take: A set of all kinds of keys , as well as special
Be sure to stock up on a brake bleeding wrench, a rubber bulb and everything you need to bleed your car’s brake system! Summary:
Where are the brake lines located? They go to all four wheels, you can find out in more detail the location of each tube only if the car is nearby, this is as easy as shelling pears, you just need to find the master brake cylinder at the beginning (see small photo), to which all four tubes are connected and then Well, you need to go from the pipe you need with your eyes, so you will understand their more detailed location, but to put it in a nutshell, the pipes are located in the engine compartment and are connected to both front wheels, and two more brake pipes (Main pipes are also called ) go to the sorcerer, and they pass under the bottom of the car (Indicated by a red arrow), so that they do not hang down, the tubes are secured using special. protection to the body, at the end (When they approach the sorcerer) there is a branching of pipes (from the sorcerer there is a branching, the sorcerer himself is indicated by a blue arrow) and they go separately to each rear wheel, you can see all this perfectly in the photograph, but there The picture shows a slightly different car, namely the Lada Kalina, but their braking systems are not too different (If the Kalina is without ABS), so don’t pay too much attention to the fact that the photo shows a different car.
When do you need to change brake lines? It’s rare that anyone changes them from time to time, and there’s no reason to do this, it’s not rubber, they won’t crack and basically nothing serious will happen to them, they most often change when deformed or if obvious rust appears on the tube, in addition, the tubes are changed if they are handled incorrectly, namely if the tube begins to leak, or you have deformed it in some way, then it must be replaced, in some cases the tubes also become clogged with dirt and the brake fluid does not reach the rear wheels, for example, to one of the front wheels, in this regard, this wheel will not brake and the brake pipe will need to either be replaced or thoroughly blown with compressed air so that it breaks through and the wheel starts working again.
How to replace brake pipes on a VAZ 2110-VAZ 2112?
Note! There are 8 brake pipes in total on cars of the tenth family, as well as on cars of the Lada Samara and others, the most difficult thing to change is the main pipes, because they are not convenient to install and additional removal of other parts will be necessary, but the easiest way to change the pipes is in the front, nothing complicated This one doesn't and won't take a lot of time, unlike the back!
Removal: 1. Removal is not difficult, but you still have to prepare to replace the pipes, start from the very first, this is pumping out the brake fluid from the brake reservoir, you can pump it out from there using a rubber bulb or honey. syringe (This fluid cannot be reused, just fill in a new one), sometimes people manage to change the tubes without draining the brake fluid from the system at all, this is not difficult to do, then you just need to pump the brakes a little and that’s it, but that’s if one tube changes, if that’s all, then it’s better to drain the liquid, so there will be less hemorrhoids, and the whole point is the following: when you disconnect the tube (Depending on what you disconnected it from), the other ends of the elements are plugged with something (If you disconnected the tube from the GTZ, then the hole is closed with a plug of some kind be it from the brake hose, then the end of the hose is closed with a bolt of a suitable diameter or something else), so the tube is changed without draining the brake fluid from the system.
2. Both the front brake pipes and the rear ones are all changed identically, they have fittings at the ends, and the fittings have nuts, using special tools. key, they turn away and the tubes are disconnected, for more details on how to disconnect the tube from the hose, read the article entitled: “Replacing the brake hose on a VAZ”, in this article everything is described in detail, how the tubes from the Brake Master Cylinder are disconnected from the sorcerer, there is no point in telling we don’t see it at all, because everything is the same, the fitting nut is unscrewed (Indicated by the red arrow) and the tube is disconnected, everything is easy and simple.
3. And finally, let’s disassemble the brake main pipes, they are the longest and run under the bottom of the car (Go from the GTZ to the sorcerer), to remove them, you will need to disconnect them from all ends at the beginning, then unscrew the three nuts that secure the protection (see photo 1) and remove the plates, which are made of metal (one of them is indicated by a red arrow in photo 2), and remove the tubes from all the holders, replace those holders that will be deformed with new ones.
Installation: The tubes are installed in the reverse order, they are usually made of aluminum alloy, so they break easily, but they bend well, and the tubes will have to be adjusted 100%, when adjusting, do everything carefully, do not bend the tubes too much and do not break them, otherwise you will have to carry out the entire operation from the very beginning, to replace it.
Note! Upon completion of the operation, pour fluid into the brake reservoir and bleed the entire system (How to bleed the brakes, read the article: “Bleeding the brakes on a car”), otherwise there will be no brakes, after bleeding, press the brake pedal with great force, and another person (Assistant) let us look under the car to see if anything is leaking, if everything is tight, only after that you can operate the car!
Additional video clip: Brake pipes on most cars are replaced in a similar way; good tips for replacing pipes, using the example of a Volkswagen car, are given in the video below, be sure to study it.
Note! If you want to see with your own eyes how the tubes are changed, in this case, watch another video, which is also located below:

Replacing brake hoses on VAZ 2110-VAZ 2112
Note! Before you begin the repair, be sure to fill the reservoir to MAX and monitor the fluid level, do not allow it to drop below MIN, otherwise you will encounter difficulties from air ingress.
Removal
1) Both in the rear and front parts of the car, the hoses are removed almost identically. We'll start with the front hoses. First, remove the wheel from the side where you are going to change the hose. Then unscrew the brake hose from the top where it attaches to the brake pipe. This location is indicated in the photo with a red arrow. The hose is unscrewed from the tube as follows:
- Spray WD-40 at the connection between the hose and tube;
- then use a wrench to grab the hose nut;
- Use a special wrench to unscrew the fitting (see the small photo for details).
Your brake fluid will leak. Use a bleeder cap to close this fitting, preventing liquid from leaking out. The hose is unscrewed at the bottom using one key. The hose attachment location is indicated by a blue arrow. After unscrewing the hose, remove the copper sealing washer and be sure to replace it with a new one.
Note! If, while unscrewing the brake hose at the top, you will realize that it is very soured to the brake pipe. This is quite easy to understand: the brake pipe fitting will rotate together with the hose. In such a situation, the tube should be replaced with a new one.
2) The procedure is similar at the rear: the hoses are attached to the tubes and disconnected using WD-40. Then, holding the hose from turning, unscrew the fitting with a special wrench (photo 1) and plug it with a cap, preventing the liquid from escaping (photo 2). Similarly, disconnect the parts from the other end. The rear ones are not attached to the caliper, but are only screwed to the brake pipes.
Installation
It is carried out in the reverse order of removal, and the sealing washers are replaced with new ones. Do not allow the hoses to twist; for this purpose, a colored stripe is applied to them; twisting is determined by it. Finally, bleed the brakes on the car (described in detail in the article: “Bleeding the brakes on cars”).
Below are videos on today's topic, we recommend you watch them:
How to replace brake hoses on a VAZ 2110-VAZ 2112?
Note! Before starting repairs, be sure to fill the brake reservoir to the MAX mark and monitor the fluid level, do not let it drop below the MIN mark, otherwise air will get into the brake system and they will need to be bled (And the brake hoses can be replaced without bleeding system)!
Removal: 1) Both in the rear and in the front, the hoses are removed almost identically, but let’s start with the front hoses, to replace them, you will first need to remove the wheel from the side on which you are going to change the hose and then unscrew the brake brake from above hose where it is attached to the brake pipe (This place is indicated in the photo with a red arrow, the brake hose is unscrewed from the brake pipe as follows: WD-40 is sprayed at the junction of the hose and pipe, then the hose nut is grabbed with a wrench, and the fitting is unscrewed with a special wrench, see the small photo for more details), when the hose is unscrewed and disconnected, brake fluid will immediately flow from the brake pipe fitting, so that it does not leak out, close this fitting with a bleeder cap, the hose can be unscrewed into the lower part simply using one key (Attachment location hose is indicated by a blue arrow), when the hose is unscrewed from below, remove the copper sealing washer; it must be replaced with a new one.
Let's figure out how to change brake hoses on a VAZ 2110
If you don’t want to contact service center specialists, you can figure out for yourself how to replace brake hoses on a VAZ 2110, and then evaluate your strengths and capabilities in order to begin repairs. The main thing is to understand all the risks and not be afraid of unforeseen situations. Be sure that replacement of small auxiliary parts will be necessary sooner or later, and there is no point in delaying repair or maintenance work. Firstly, if one part fails, it can provoke a decrease in the level of functionality of another, no less important component in the technical system of the car. Secondly, any deformation of parts, their “boiling”, or damage can lead to the undesirable effect of uncontrollability of the car. Just imagine what can happen if a vehicle's brakes malfunction! It is better not to let the car you have at your disposal fall into this state; you should think in time about how to replace the brake hoses of a VAZ 2110 and what you will need for this.
Brake hoses for VAZ 211
Let us remember that the main task of the hoses is to supply brake fluid from the main brake cylinder located in the hood to the working brake cylinders at the wheels. And everything is carried out under considerable pressure and at a fairly high temperature. The hoses are interconnected with moving suspension elements, and therefore are made of wear-resistant rubber, but hoses cannot be called eternal, so sooner or later you will have to decide how to change the brake hoses on a VAZ 2110, and whether it is worth doing it yourself.

13. The brake hoses on the rear wheels are replaced in the same way. After replacing the hoses, it is necessary to bleed the brake system
Video on replacing brake hoses:
When you should think that it’s time to check the condition of the brake hoses on the VAZ 2110
- The machine has been in active use for about five years. It is recommended to check the external condition of the rubber parts and decide whether it is time for repair and how to change the brake hoses on a VAZ 2110.
- The vehicle was “bought second hand”. When changing the owner of the car, most of the components should be changed, because their history was unknown. For example, were there any repairs or preventive inspections at technical parking lots? And in general, changing the brake fluid under conditions of purchase and sale is simply recommended in order to ensure the effectiveness of the braking system, which is so important in emergency situations on the road. And in parallel with the check, you can decide how to replace the brake hoses on a VAZ 2110, independently or with the help of a specialist.
- The owner of the car noticed an unwanted bend or crease in the hose. As a result, this can lead to damage to its integrity and leakage of brake fluid. If this happens, then you cannot do without pumping. And this is a more time-consuming and financially consuming undertaking than solving the problem of how to replace the brake hoses of a VAZ 2110.
Reasons why you should change brake hoses
- Microcracks have formed in the bends of the hose, especially at the fastening points of the brake system element.
- Areas of abrasion appeared at the contact points between the hose and the suspension. In such a situation, you need to urgently decide how to replace brake hoses on a VAZ 2110, and you can’t do it without a specialist. His task is to establish the further operation of the system so that there are no abrasions and bald spots due to contact of parts.
- Brake fluid leaking from existing pipe connections is noticeable
- It is rare, but it is possible for stones, snow, dirt, ice to get into the brake system, which can cause malfunctions in its operation.
- Product error from the inside. You won't be able to tell by inspection, but there may be a detachment of the inside of the hose. With this option, the passage of brake fluid becomes more difficult and spontaneous blockage occurs. And this leads to disastrous results if you do not decide in time how to replace the brake hoses of the VAZ 2110
Cracks in hose bends
Thus, it is recommended to carry out scheduled replacements of rubber parts when their service life comes to an end or the machine is often used in extreme off-road conditions. A timely solution to the problem of how to change brake hoses on a VAZ 2110 will have a positive result than in cases of prolonging the problem, inflating the reasons for doing nothing.
Reasons for replacing brake hoses
If, when inspecting the brake system, there are cracks in the brake hose(s), then it is necessary to replace it as soon as possible, because such hoses will soon burst during braking, when the pressure in the brake system is high, which will most likely cause an accident.
Also, the reason for replacement may be brake fluid leaks at the base of the hoses. With further operation, these problems will cause greater damage to the hoses, which also threatens brake failure.
Replacement also needs to be done if the wheel rubs against the brake hose. When traces of friction are visible, this means that sooner or later the hose will fray. When installing a new hose, make sure that it does not touch the wheel while driving.
What you will need if you decide to start replacing brake hoses on a VAZ 2110
- Inspection pit or lift
- Set of wrenches for working with hose fasteners
- New set of brake hoses for front and rear wheels
- Jack, wheel chocks
- New brake fluid, according to the volume of complete filling of the system and the next and important pumping
- Help from a partner in repair work, especially if you have to do pumping.
- Copper ring for fastening the hose, special gaskets.
- To pump, you will need a thin transparent hose and a plastic bottle.
Step-by-step instructions on how to replace brake hoses on a VAZ 2110
- One of the options for fixing the machine is used - a lift, an inspection hole, a jack.
- All necessary tools of suitable diameter and purpose are prepared.
- We fill the central cylinder (reservoir in the hood) with brake fluid up to the “max” mark, so that when removing the hose it will not all leak out. Otherwise, the system will need to be bled.
- We unscrew the upper fastenings of the hose and install a plug or cap to stop the brake fluid and not let it all out of the system.
Replacing the brake hose
- We take hold of the lower fastenings of the hose, release the hose from the shock absorber bracket, and unscrew the fitting from the working brake cylinder.
- We inspect the copper ring present in the fastening system. If it is not yet damaged, then we reuse it. But first, the ring should be thoroughly cleaned, and its seat itself should not be dirty.
- A new hose is installed, the same sequence is followed that was used when solving the problem of how to replace the brake hoses of a VAZ 2110.

Every time it becomes necessary to remove the front wheels, it is worth checking the condition of the hoses. There is no set car mileage required for replacement.

Replacement
Before replacing the VAZ 2110 brake hose, the reservoir should be filled as much as possible and ensure that the fluid level in it does not decrease.
In order to replace the front hoses of a VAZ 2110 you need to:
- Remove the wheel.
- Unscrew the brake hose where it attaches to the brake pipe. For convenience, you can spray WD-40 at the connection point and use a wrench to grab the threaded VAZ 2110 brake hose nut. Then, using a special wrench, unscrew the fitting.
- Brake fluid should flow. To prevent it from leaking out, the fitting is closed with a cap.
- Unscrew the hose from below.
- The sealing washer is removed. It is also subject to replacement.
The same actions are performed with the rear brake hoses.
Installation of the part is carried out in the reverse order. It is important to ensure that the hoses do not become kinked. To determine this, you need to look at the colored stripe applied to the parts.
At the end of the work you need to bleed the brakes. If only one brake hose has been replaced, the side that was replaced is bled.
To bleed, you need to fill the brake fluid into the reservoir to the level. Unscrew the fitting on the 8th working brake cylinder and put on the hose. Place the other end of the part in a bottle with a small amount of brake fluid. It will be necessary to attract an assistant.
He sits in the driver's seat and presses the brake pedal several times. Air bubbles should come out of the tube lowered into the bottle of brake fluid. If fluid leaks out, the brake pedal remains pressed and the fitting is tightened to 8.
The brake pedal can now be released. Clean the bleeding area and connections from dirt and press the brake pedal a few more times. It is important that there is no brake fluid leakage.
