It's the first one since I've owned it.

I've got my fingers crossed that there's nothing wrong

Funnily enough, I was already hunting around for a set. I'm now getting them fitted on Tuesday with the new gaiter.

NOW PASSED!!!!!

I got the above work done at SCC this morning, then took it back for it's re-test this afternoon which it of course passed .

The braided hoses are a huge improvement, and well worth the small investment.

Happy Cossie motoring again!!!
