Car is a 2005 XJR. Are the flexible steel braided brake lines standard on this car.Bought a replaced for the right rear and it is made of rubber even though it was listed for my car. It seems most places that sell these in the UK have different hoses listed for my car part number is supposedly c2c6168. Jaguar says it has been superseded .If this is the case my hose as it bolts to the caliper is straight with a slight kink in it.It seems the superseded ones have a 90 degree bend does anyone know if these still fit.

Many Thanks
Steve.

 

Unfortunately I don't have an answer on the specific replacement part or if it's been superseded by Jag, but I can confirm the braided hoses are standard on the x350. Was this rubber replacement hose from Jag?

 

No came from an independent, muppets. Had to get new line from Jag christ how expensive. Even the Jag parts guy said hes never seen anything but braided lines on Jags.

 

After reading this, I will go to the local junk yard and pull the brake lines for back up.

 

Galfer has made brake lines for me in the past, for motorcycles of plastic coated braided stainless.
All kinds of places can make up hoses.

 

Unfortunately the way Jaguar made them they have in built thread for the solid brake line and a bracket that holds the flex line to the bodywork.

 

Have yet to have them to make any car lines.
I make any needed solid lines up myself, cars as well as bikes.
Goodridge sells fittings as well as rolls of the stainless hose.
Brake lines are not all that hard to make.
