Brake line/pipe failure need help


Recommended Posts

Left side of photo is the front side of the car.

 

The rupture happened on the rear right side just off of the connection in the picture, c007a6083e6118b4f6e156e36c9271c8.jpg

The fluid leaks down towards the jack stands forwards across a few other lines so it appears to come from multiple places but I’m fairly confident it only is leaking from the one spot.

 

What do I need to replace? Is this just a new rear brake pipe issue?

 

Never really done this stuff on my own but I’m in automotive school starting brakes now but need to have a car to get there.

That thread will explain it all.

 

You will want to replace all the brake lines. it will be a good school project for you.

 

I was one of the few that Subaru covered the repair.

305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD).  CHECK your oil, these cars use it.
