[QUOTE="DarkAccoon, post: 947328, member: 436"] just thinking of it this way are you having a spongy feeling from pressing the brakes? if yes, then you may have to change the brake hose else just leave it what braided hose does is the same as a new hose just that it last longer than the normal hose how is it this way cause braided hose just prevents the hose from expanding when applied preasure thus more preasure will be directed to the braking system hence the better braking power which is the same as new brake hose, which does not expand much since its new (if it does expands a lot, you will get the spongy feeling when pressing the brake and what you should od is throw the hose back to the bugger mechanic) if everything is stock, then just go for new brake pads how long have you been using your brake fluid? if just a year or two, then dun bother changing it too cause as far as i know, brake fluids can last at least 5 years (depending on certain criteria also lar, if poorly maintained or the owner always open the brake fluid cover, different case lar) better not post too long anymore, can hear lighting and thunder all around the house correct me if i am wrong, always open for new knowledge here [/QUOTE]
