Thanks lads. Do ye know how many hours labour this kind of job can take? Trying to throw a budget together between now and July to get her right for road and sadly the E36 is at the bottom of the financial priority list at the moment.

I’ve had a number of E36’s done in the past and never paid more than €120 total for the rear lines. This was done by a well known mechanic close to me who is a genius when it comes to bending brake lines to follow factory curves.

The braided flex lines will cost you a bit more but worth doing along with a fluid flush.

€120? Wow, I was expecting a bill of multiples of that. I have looked at the braided lines and there are a plethora of options and I reckon they will ve a prudent move solely from a future proofing perspective.
