Power steering pipes have corroded and having problems locating replacements.
It appears that the 1986 model pipes are different to later models which makes identification difficult BMW want £250 for a pipe!!!! Anybody know of an alternative source? Cheers John T |

Hi john
I know of two company's that you could try. One of them is eurocarparts they are nationwide & another is gsf they are in Leicester but may have branches nationwide or they may do mail order. Gsf is known as German swede French as they deal in parts for these marques. I hope this is of some help to you & they may be worth a look. Regards Rich |

If the ends of your existing pipes are in decent condition then perhaps a truck dealership/workshop could make you replacement pipes from truck brakepipe which are similar bore using your own pipe ends???
