Landrovernuts Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Wish me luck - I have just had to fit a Britpart top hose after blowing the internal threaded bleed nipple boss out of my one sitting in traffic in the middle of Exeter! It failed spectacularly with hot coolant everywhere and all I could get was a Britpart hose - needs must at the time. The main dealer was not interested, as Td5 is now too old for them to stock any fast moving parts - apparently! Toby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hangover Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 No moving parts so should be ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shackleton Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Yeah sould be ok, least for the medium term. I've never heard of that hose delaminating. Oh and good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Landrovernuts Posted May 29, 2017 Author Share Posted May 29, 2017 It has survived two long journeys now - so looking good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arjan Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Contrary to popular belief, Britpart does make stuff that is usable. You can't be that big and have existed for so long when all the sell is rubbish. Everybody gets it wrong.. What matters more is how that situation is sorted by the seller..

Davo Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 After various failures, I don't use their stuff, however they do buy things in and so if you're lucky you might get something decent. But you have to be lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
