anyone ever have the bleeder screw seized?
well, i was installing the SS brakelines from mazdatrix. then bled my brakes.. i did the rears, now i am on the front pass. side. the bleeder screw was stuck and then it just broke off... same with the driver's front...
anyone ever have the same problem? do i need rebuilt calipers? if i do then, DAMNIT! $80 down the drain..
so, what color should i paint em? red?

Haven't we ALL heard this
Black and I would go kill the last person who bleed your brakes.
How much of the bleeder screw is left in place?
If there is enough above the brake caliper you could take a Dremel and cut slots in it so you can use a screwdriver to get it loose.

Maybe you could call a brake shop. I am sure they deal with sort of thing.
Hell, if they have maybe you can bring your calipers down to them and let them handle it. It should be cheaper than new calipers.
