Return Pipe For Lds

[Doru S]

Hello to all. I have a problem that the local dealer was unable to solve. I wonder where i can find a return pipe for LDS fluid (after an eye-inspection of my car i observed that this flexible tube might have a problem, it's cracked).My local dealer told me that i can not find this piece. If anyone can help me i would be grateful. Thanks a lot and have a nice day!

You don't say which pipe it is - noticed the LDS return pipe from the front passenger wheel on my C5 has been completely severed at the top. Took it to main dealer today, and they are going to order a new pipe - not a major job they say!

Have had this problem a few times and an easy fix is as follows

1 cut the return pipe in half

2 The piece of pipe that you have in your hand you now shove onto the metal pipe the that comes out of the strut

3 take 3 to 4 inches of brake piping and conect it to the 2 rubber ends.

4 use 3 zip fastners and put 1 on the end of each piece of rubber piping

its a common enogh problem but replacing the pipe does not stop it from happening again as everytime you raise the suspension you put strain on them as there just not long enough so by extend them the cause is cured and you dont have to worry about bleeding the system just drive car and it does it itself
