Mike strange you should say that as I've had the first two faults on my 96 in the last two months. one was a faulty ABS sensor and the other a split top hose.

In fact when i had the housing done I had the main hoses changed as they were the original on the car from the factory (despite an engine change from jaguar in 2004).

I was honestly surprised at how much the old hoses were 'bloated' compared to the new ones. I understand that it is possible to buy kevlar type house from some suppliers that should give a longer life...hhowever I think 13 years is enough :D

I agree. 13 might be unlucky for some but it's good for hoses! Mike.
