So i was checking up on the brakes since they felt a bit spongy recently, found a small leak and fixed it, and bled that corner. I decided to bleed the whole system since the brakes still werent too firm, and when i got to the pass front, the bleeder was obviously screwed up. It was all chewed up like someone had used a pair of vice-grips on it many times, and no wrench i had would go on it (besides the aforementioned vice grips). So i go to open it, and it snaps off. I figure 'no big deal', take the whole valve off and go to strauss for a replacement. They dont have one in the right size, and everywhere else is closed.



Has anyone found a place that has these in the correct size? Its the bleeder valve for the front 4-pot calipers. Thanks

I had the same problem, ended up replacing the caliper as it was less frustrating. (and easier to find a good one..)

dare i say it..

if you cant find one at local autostores... try the dealer

Phins used to have these speed bleeders back when he sold parts, maybe he could tell you where to find them.



If you're willing to wait, I probably have 8 calipers that I could rob bleed valves from and mail to you.
