    Question Brake lines Schematic for S211 E270 Model 2003

    Hi can anyone prove a brake lines schematic for the E270 T model 2003?


    Brake fluid is leaking from the n/s front just in front of the front door area.


    Also any advice on the repair, will copper pipe suffice?


    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    NEVER use copper line nor compression fittings for brake line repairs. American vehicles utilize S.A.E "double" flare line and fittings, whereas Euro vehicles use I.S.O "bubble" flare and fittings. If you don't have the tools or the knowledge to do proper brake line repairs... it's best left to the professionals in the trade.
