01 S40 Brake Booster Hose Failure

Post by StillTrying »

Re: 2001 S40

Greetings to All,

After 24 years this hose failed at the Brake Booster end - just crumbling due to age. Please see attached.

I have checked all my sources (more than a dozen) and can't find the part anywhere = Part # 30616993, pic attached.

Does anyone have a source or way to create a new piece where it crumbled ?

Desperate ! Many thanks for any and all help.

Tom

I have tried it on my 2000 v40 1.9t and the leaking stopped. My total with about 80$ (i did not have to buy the clamps as i already had some and i found a cheaper senser than him)
