Some of you might remember the E brake issue I posted about a few months ago. Well I finally fixed it by buying a new rear passenger side caliper.
Parking brake works perfectly now. However, I decided to bleed my entire brake system, because the fluid was almost empty at one point (the caliper was leaking and i didn't know)
My little brother was helping me, and well, the bleeding screw on my rear driver's side caliper broke off, leaving the screw part still threaded inside the caliper. Impossible to get to with pliers, Tried soaking it in pb blaster.
I'd rather not drop another $80 on another caliper Any advise?
While we're on the topic of broken screws, one of the screws that hold the fog lights in place broke off, leaving the screw still threaded inside the light....The same screw broke on both fog lights... Any ideas how to get it out, without shelling out the money for one of those bolt removing kits?
