Front brake hose

ab2504s · Jul 18th, 2018, 19:34

Does anyone with a 2003 V70 (Euro3 D5 with 17" wheels) know what length brake hoses are required for the front please?

The ATE web catalog lists 2 possible lengths, 300mm & 320mm. The 320mm length is described as "Not for rim size 17 inch". I have 17" wheels so according to ATE I need 300mm. However, just measured mine and they are 320mm.

Mine have an MOT advisory & need replacing. I'm inclined to order the same length as already installed but, just wondering if the P.O. fitted wrong size...

Thx

i put some on, similar car in an s60.

i just put reg into ecp and got the pagid ones - fine.

with ecp you could order all sizes and take the ones back that dont fit, you get 365days for the no quibble cash refund

Just looked online at FCP Euro. It appears that 286mm and 305mm discs shar same size of hose but that the 330mm discs require a longer one. I have not seen any reference to wheel size. In NA the only S60s with 330mm rotors in front are the R’s I think. Prob same over there.

Just looked at both the ECP and FCP websites.

FCP also lists the pukka volvo part (#30792530). The longer length ATE line is indicated as a replacement for this OEM part# so I'll give it a go.

Thanks guys.
