Hi guys, i'm having problems with brake limiter valves, i've gone through three of them in three years! Ok they were all second hand parts but why am i having such an issue? Is it just me getting unlucky on the ones i'm buying?

Is there any way i can bypass the limiter? I had a quick read on the mini spares website and that kinda suggested not going back to the old system. But does anybody know of anything that i can do to stop this problem occuring?!

Cheers Jimbo

You talking about the FAM valve on the bulkhead?

You could just get a front/rear bias valve. Although be aware, in car adjuastable ones are not MOT passable (your not allowed to be able to adjust it whilst driving).

You ain't be on for a while, hows it going dude?

LOL, haven't had a chance to sort out the Jap c**p yet! :-

Erm, I think Demon tweeks might do a brake bias, but that may mean you need to make up new brake hoses? Otherwise try kit car parts suppliers like Merlin or Europa.
