What is the main benefit of upgrading to stainless steel brake lines?

Stainless steel brake lines, like these from Goodridge, replace flexible rubber hoses that can expand under pressure. This expansion causes a spongy pedal feel. The braided stainless steel lines resist expansion, leading to a firmer, more consistent pedal and improved braking control.

Are these brake lines difficult to install?

Replacing brake lines typically involves bleeding the brake system afterward. While the lines themselves are designed to fit directly, it's recommended to refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for the specific procedure and any required tools.

What does D.O.T. compliant mean for these brake lines?

D.O.T. compliant means these brake lines meet the safety and performance standards set by the Department of Transportation for use on public roads. This ensures they are built to a specific quality and reliability level.

About this part

Product Details

Goodridge is well-known for making high-performance fluid transfer systems, and these stainless steel brake lines are a great example of their work. If you're working on your 2007-2015 Audi Q7, especially if you're looking to get more out of your braking system, these lines are a solid choice. They replace your factory rubber brake hoses, which can expand and feel spongy over time, especially under hard use. By using a PTFE inner hose wrapped in a stainless steel outer braid, these Goodridge lines resist expansion, giving you a much firmer and more consistent pedal feel.

This improved pedal response means you'll have more confidence when you need to brake hard, and it can even lead to slightly shorter stopping distances. The stainless steel braiding also offers superior resistance to abrasion and corrosion, so they'll hold up well and look good in your engine bay for a long time. They are built to meet all federal requirements and undergo a 9-point quality assurance test, so you know you're getting a reliable part.
