Silly French And Their 'design' Antics!

Woke up saturday morning to find this ->

Thats power steering fluid. Silly piping arrangement snuged in right under the sill, (clearly the best place for it :blink:) had expired.

 

Onto service box and laughed at peugeots prices, popped to B&Q instead and bought some copper pipe for £20. I got 7mm diameter, but to be fair 8 might have been a tighter fit.

 

Time to turn it into this, equipped with only an idiots (in car repair terms at least) knowledge and the incorrect tools (read a hammer) ->

Not a bad job I thought. The pipe was a little on the slack side of a snug fit so just made sure they extended well into the rubber hose and whacked butterflys on nice n tight ->

Good work. I know what you mean it seems like a weird arrangement, tis just to cool the fluid down a bit i guess!
