- Porsche 996 C2 3.4L 1997-08/01
- Porsche 996 C4 3.4L 1997-08/01
Restore the integrity of your brake hydraulics with this genuine OEM rigid brake line for the Porsche 911 (996 Carrera/Carrera 4) models. This high-quality rigid steel line forms part of the front section brake-line circuit (often associated with the ABS/ modulator unit) and ensures optimal brake fluid delivery, pressure stability and system reliability.
Fits:
- Porsche 996 C2 3.4L 1999
- Porsche 996 C4 3.4L 1999
Diagram Ref No 6
What This Product Does:
- This brake line carries hydraulic brake fluid under high pressure from the brake master cylinder or hydraulic/ABS unit to the front brakes (or to the relevant section identified) in the braking system.
- Because it is a rigid line (usually steel or lacquered steel), it provides a fixed, stable conduit for fluid, resists expansion and maintains proper pedal feel and brake response.
- In an ABS-equipped system, having correct brake line integrity is vital for the anti-lock system to sense and modulate pressure correctly. A damaged or corroded line can compromise braking or ABS functionality.
Symptoms & Signs Of Wear Or Failure:
- Visible damage or corrosion: Rusted, pitted or flared ends, cracks in the line or flaking coating that indicate structural weakness.
- Brake fluid leak: Any sign of fluid seepage, drips, dampness along the underside or around fittings — a failing rigid line can leak at the flare or crack.
- Soft brake pedal or spongy feel: While harder to detect with a rigid line, if that section is compromised or has internal blockage, pedal feel may degrade.
- ABS warning or braking inconsistency: If the ABS unit is unable to regulate pressure or if one circuit is compromised, you may see warning lights or uneven braking.
- During restoration or braking system overhaul: If other parts are being replaced (ABS unit, calipers, fluid), it’s good practice to replace brake lines that look old or suspect, especially for critical parts like rigid front lines.
- Safety & braking performance: The braking system is one of the most critical safety systems in the vehicle. A deteriorated brake line compromises braking response and could lead to failure.
- Brake pedal feel and response reliability: A properly installed, intact brake line ensures consistent pedal pressure and predictable braking — essential for the driver’s control.
- ABS & system integrity: In a system with ABS and hydraulic modulator units, all lines must be within specification for proper functioning. A damaged line in this circuit may compromise the system.
