I flushed the brake fluid and now one of the brake bleeder screw is leaking around the threads. It's not loose and it's not leaking from the top. Any idea how to fix it?

 

Torque the bleed valve to 69 INCH/lbs.

 

I did but it's still leaking.

 

Then remove it and install a new one, torque to proper spec.

 

Do I need to buy it from the delaer to ensure it matches the one I have or I can buy it from AAP?

What's the correct tourqe for the back caliper? The manual list 85 in-lb.

 

Bleeder valve should be the same torque, caliper to knuckle bolts are closer to 85 ft-lb, but I don't know off the top of my head.

Bottom angled edge of bleeder should seal against the caliper below the threads, so when you remove it check for damage or FOD on the bleeder or caliper.

 

Actually for some odd reason it shows the front and rear bleed screws as different torque spec, 69 INCH/lbs is plenty though. Usually when I tighten it by hand with a wrench it ends up being just slightly undertorqued and that's more than enough to seal.

 

I'll buy new screw and see if it fix the problem. I think the shop mess the screw by over tightening it. Thanks for your help!
