You'll be fine,there is no reason to change out the hoses. If you are really worried have a P-car mechanic look over it before your trip.

Instead, I'd suggest changing all the hoses to steel braided lines, then you can wait 2 years before the next overhaul instead of one!

Just kidding!!

I think if you feel up to it, go for it. It certainly won't hurt, and you might be surprised what you see. All of us Boxster owners see various drips and drops now and again in our garage floors, so here's a chance to find out where they might be originating.
