I was in the process of looking at my rear brakes when I noticed a little black plastic line hanging from my rear passenger strut. I climbed underneath to and found the other part of it.

My compressor doesnt run that often, i only notice it like once a week at the very most. Does caddy sell the lines? It looks like it a one piece connector that has a line that goes to both sides.

Would it be worth replacing the line when my car is 10 yrs old and has 130000 miles on it?

I know the front struts are in need of replacing and I will put some passive KYB's on there, just wondering if its even worth-while to replace the line.

Also, I gots a question about doing the rear brakes in my car. DO you just take off one bolt so the calipers pivot up or what? Ive never seen a setup like this one before.

Thanks, Matt
