kevin hall Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 I have a 2000 reg lupo with no air con. I need a hydraulic pipe for my power steering as it has corroded. The part number is 6N2 422 893 J but apparently it is no longer being produced. I have tried looking for alternatives but the only option seems to be trying to find a scrap option. does anyone have any ideas, or have they had a similar problem? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LR5V Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 I think it was @Sausage who replaced the entire length with hydraulic line - there is a thread somewhere on here - you can order them for a very reasonable price made to measure on ebay, you will be replacing the banjo & bolt with male fittings. Just need to be careful for routing near exhaust/moving parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mk2 Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 Good job @LR5V Knew there was a thread somewhere with lots of info. I have a spare used and very rusty PS pipe which i need to rebuild for the next occasion. Reading that old thread will make me do it now!

scotty2 Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 I got mine (2 short ones and the long one that comes round to the front to the pump) from: Mobile Fluid Ltd trading as Power Steering Store <sales@powersteeringstore.co.uk> http://www.powersteeringstore.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chonpy_snake Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 I happen to have a set on my breaker 2003 1.0 shell. They look corroded in places but they didn't leak as far as I recall. Would they be of any use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin hall Posted March 9, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2021 Hi everyone Thanks for all your help. I took the advice and checked out my local hydraulics firm La Pla in Sheffield, they fixed the pipe with a 13" hose in five minutes, cleaned it out and charged £25. Forget Vorsprung Durch Technik, now a part of Lupo is Made in Sheffield! Vorsprung Durch Technik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
