Rear brakeline fitting?
Im about to replace my rear hard brakelines on my w204 c180, 2008 euro model. Does anyone know which fitting is being used? I think it is m10×1 ø 5, 11 x 16.7 but im not sure?

Yes, of course. Here it is
WDD2042461F275277
another question. The car as failed its MOT due to brakeline rust, both sides. There is only about 2-4 cm of rust in the first bend after the fitting connecting the brake hose. Would you replace the enither line or splice it with a joint?

Out Of Control!!
Hey you don't have to jerk around with a splice and all that HS-------the R side is 123 420 90 28 and the spacer or as you call it a fitting is 121 429 01 34-----the L side is 123 420 81 28 and spacer is again 121 429 01 34.
You simply clip to length, flare the pipe to the spacers flare and you have clean leak free connection----the important issue is the flare, if not you will ask why does it leak so bad---well you used the wrong flare tool

I was thinking about the spacere when i said joint. Since the pipe is good all the way to the end, how about replaceing around 10 cm pipe and put a spacer behinde the wheel weel? Yes or no? So i dont need to replace the whole pipe
