My 2006 GS has just had its F1 pipes replaced after one was found to be split. Whilst there also had a new pump fitted too.

The old pipes were all showing signs of cracking, so be aware if your car is similar age.

Can't believe how quick the new F1 pump primes compared to the original.

Thanks to Matt and Ashley for the works.

So recommend the two pipes in the pic, the longer pipe from the reservoir to the metal pipe and the F1 elbow.

The F1 elbow you have to buy at circa £100, the others you can buy the correct hydraulic pipe and cut to length. It’s the low pressure return so good quality jubilee clips more than sufficient.
