BMWs are well known for their superior handling - often times, drivers don't notice the gradual failure of critical suspension components for this very reason. Vibrations and clunking are a very solid indication that something has completely worn out; each component has a recommended replacement date, though many parts last longer before showing obvious signs of failure. If your E36 3 Series has at least 100,000 miles or presents these common symptoms, ECS reinforcement components are a strong upgrade option for your stock suspension.

Premium Exact-Fit lines from ECS Tuning, are made of special materials, unlike stock brake hoses made of synthetic rubber (EPDM) surrounded by fabric mesh reinforcement that is then encased in another layer of rubber.

Stronger than rubber, PTFE swells less under pressure, is flexible and durable, and is unaffected by chemicals that can damage EPDM hoses, including petroleum-based fluids.
