RIGID PIPE FROM PUMP TO CONTROL UNIT (MC1)

RIGID PIPE FROM PUMP TO CONTROL UNIT (MC1)

Product Description:

Maserati part number 236778, also known as the rigid pipe from pump to control unit (MCI), is a component of the braking system in Maserati GranTurismo, GranCabrio, and Quattroporte vehicles. It is a metal pipe that connects the hydraulic pump to the brake control unit, which distributes brake fluid to the four wheels. The MCI plays an important role in ensuring that the brakes work properly and that the vehicle can stop safely.

Here are some of the specific functions of the MCI:

• It transfers hydraulic fluid from the pump to the control unit under high pressure.
• It helps to maintain constant brake pressure throughout the braking system.
• It reduces brake fade by preventing the hydraulic fluid from overheating.
• It helps to improve the overall performance and reliability of the braking system.

If the MCI is damaged or fails, it can cause a variety of problems, such as:

• Reduced braking performance.
• Brake fade.
• Leaking brake fluid.
• Spongy brake pedal.
• Complete brake failure.

It is important to have the MCI inspected and replaced regularly, especially if you drive your Maserati in harsh conditions or if you tow a trailer.

Please note that the MCI is a safety-critical component, and it is important to have it replaced by a qualified mechanic.
