I have looked everywhere. I need the brake line clip on the front that goes where the rubber line connects to the hard line on the opposite side of the caliper , the one that looks like a C. Where can I find this?

Ed Hughes

Define everywhere. Any of the Porsche parts places should carry these. Pelican, for instance. Found it in about 45 seconds...

Ryan O'Connor

Maybe it's because I don't know what it's called. I searched Pelican. Can you give me a part number or link?

Ryan O'Connor

Not the horseshoe clip, the other one.

Ed Hughes

It's called a brake line clip, and on the same page as brake lines. You said it looked like a C.

Ryan O'Connor

Yeah, that was confusing. It's the clip on where the hard line meets the flex line. It is like a spring.

Aha! I don't know how I missed it - I looked at that page a lot!

Ed Hughes

That's the same page I got to in 45 secs.

Ryan O'Connor

Dang Ed. I'm sorry, not sure why you want to give me a hard time. I'm not an idiot - I got my MBA from Columbia and own a highly technical company. Believe me - I looked all over trying to find that part before posting such a dumb question. I know it was dumb! But sometimes you just can't see something right in front of you. I found that page in 30 seconds, I just didn't see the part. Sorry if it bothers you

Ed Hughes

A little thin-skinned? Sorry to ruffle you. I was simply confirming that's what I found last night. However, the comments about looking all over seem to be non-applicable, as it was obviously there. You may want to download the PET manual from the Porsche site. Then you can get part numbers and have another way to search.

Ryan O'Connor

Not at all! I didn't see the line with the part I needed. It was there, but for some reason I didn't see it. I looked all over searching with every part name I could think of. If I had seen it there I would have been done. I looked at that page 10 times!

I visit a lot of forums like this. I don't understand when people post things like I found what you wanted in 45 seconds, why couldn't you? Posting to the forum was the last thing I did and I sure didn't want to because I know not finding it was dumb on my part. Sometimes that happens.

I am no Porsche expert, but I am with Powerstrokes. I post a lot of answers on a Powerstroke forum and always try to be helpful. That's why people use forums like this. I don't want to make people feel dumb because they don't know something or can't find something. Even when it's right in front of their face, like what happened to me.

No big deal. I am sure I will ask more dumb questions!

I've tried to help twice. The download is a must for anyone new to Porsches.

I went so far as to buy the CD that has the parts for ALL of the Porsche models. Very handy.

Ryan O'Connor

I do have the download and I do appreciate your help.
