    GREAT !!!



    i knew i shouldnt have bothered

    attempted to bleed the back brakes, bleed nipple sheered off, and is now stuck in my 8mm spanner

    hopefully ill be able to get it out with a stud extractor, but i dont hold out much hope, havent got any so ill have to order some and attempt it another day

    plus its raining so i can seal my sunroof
