NLA.

May need one, so if anyone has a source I'd appreciate it. Checked with Carl and CSi but won't hear anything until next week (everyone's at Monterey).

Thanks.

this part is also a target for me, and now i amfinding that no spare is available
so i will try to find a repair set, any advise ??
the issue is that the part is leaking
can be a loose nut, or a gasket,...who knows
i will check it when i can go under the car
in a few weeks a garage with an appropriqte holein the floor will be available

I found one 5 years ago at a wholesale parts supplier, not BMW. Same with calipers, it is worth making a few calls.

Sent mine off to White Post. $175 + shipping

wow
that is a pretty amount of money !
what was the problem in your case to decide you need a rebuild ?

The rear end kicked out under braking, especially in damp conditions. As you can imagine, not a comfortable experience, and a real eye opener the first time it happened. Also having the rear calipers rebuilt, and maybe the master cylinder.

The front calipers have already been rebuilt, so I imagine that the braking system is something I shouldn't have to worry about for a long time...

wow, i only have a drop leak in that area that makes my garage floor dirty and makes the brake fluid level down in its reservoir, so i will check it carefully when i would go under the car.... maybe only a retorque issue, who knows !

Have you heard from Carl Nelson yet?

 

[NewSixCoupe]

Yes. Carl has rebuilt regulators (proportioning valve) for $195 + shipping, so a bit more than White Post.
