Thanks for taking a second to look. I am currently changing my rear calipers because my old ones were completely screwed. I'm replacing them with factory ones off of a friends car. Everything has gone together fine and there were no problems until I went to move the car out of the garage. I noticed a pool of fluid and it's coming out at a very steady drip. Here are some pictures.





It was/is leaking where the hose is bolted into the back of the caliper. The third picture shows where i am talking about. I took it off, cleaned the area, made sure it had a washer, put it back on and it still leaks. Any ideas?

Also, i have not bleed the brakes yet because of this and the front reservoir where the brake fluid goes is empty. Is this normal or is that all of my rear brake fluid gone?

I'll be getting back on from time to time to check and answer questions, thanks alot!

 

Try getting new copper washers, I had one that leaked on me once after I had taken the lines off and that took care of it, now I replace em every time I take them loose, their cheap too

 

Checked it out and it was missing the washer that was on the caliper side. Threw it on off my old set and everything was good! Thanks alot!

 

Glad you got it fixed !

 

While we are on the copper washer topic. Harbor Freight sells a kit of various sized copper washers which are cheap and work very well as replacements on our cars.

Incidentally, re-using a copper washer will sometimes work and sometimes not. A new one will always work ok.
