    Broken brake line... AND HOW TO FIX IT !!

    My luck this week is just terrible. I now have a broken hard brake line

    This line is on the passengers side, right behind the rear wheel area.







    Does anyone know WHERE this line goes to? Looks like its connected to some weird flexible hoses that route around the back of the car somewhere.. but I cant really tell WHERE they are going to.

    I'm going to need to run some new lines, but I'm not really sure where to start with this. Looks like the line comes in from under the rear seat, and then drops down, then around the car.

    Just wondering if anyone has done this before, and what the best way to route the lines would be.

    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. I feel like my luck is just not good this week.

    Thanks for this post, as been a great help.
    My line bursted after the abs module, there's a 90° turn near the passenger wall, then bursted near the 4 way in the back.
    I'm almost done, getting ready to bleed and found some more line in bad shape, under the brake booster. (I had only replaced where was corroded)
    Would also like to point that the manual contradicts it self on bleeding, page 87 and page 4182.
    Removing also the lines at the booster to bleed as the manual indicates, doesn't air goes back in when removing finger to insert the line connector?

    Thanks
