Hi Dai

What a saga! So look I understand the braking system, but I have no experience whatsoever with hydraulics. I am contemplating a visit to Anglesey - seriously! Just it's a lot of miles from here and the brakes ain't hot!

If I had brake hose clamps, would you suggest I went round clamping each hose (pair of hoses) and seeing what happens? Am I doing this with the engine running or off or doesn't it matter?

BTW, should the bleed screws be on the top side of the calipers when they are in place on the car? I had a vague notion that they should be on the lower side... Having had all the wheels off today, all four bleed screws (other than the centrally located ones obviously) are at the top

I don't want to start undoing bleed screws without knowing that I have a competent local garage who could remedy anything I mess up! That's my concern
