If it wasn't for the unusual circumstances under which I bought it, I would have. I have repaired/replaced brake lines many times, and have all the tools to bend, flare, and double flare lines. But, because of the way i bought this X5, I couldn't do the work on my own (LONG story), so I had to let the dealer fix it so it would pass the NYS safety inspection before I took it home. At least the brake lines are ONE thing I don't have to worry about going bad on this ride.
