One of the first jobs I did on the car was replace the brake fluid, so that is done. I noted the rotors are held in place by the wheel nuts, rather than any form of securing bolts. That can’t be good, I assume securing bolts should be added. Thanks.
I've got HEL braided lines on my C70 and Goodridge on my S40, no problems on either yet!
