Does anyone know the bleeder screw torque spec for the GTR front calipers (Mine is carbon ceramic brake B07)? I just did a brake flush and hand tightened the screws (tighten to no leak then another small "pinch") , but seems it has a little bit of "sweating" coming out from the seat after driving.
I know these calipers can be very sensitive to that, so just want to check the spec to be sure.

Do you think it could be residual brake fluid down inside the bleeder nipple getting thrown out, or is it more fluid than that?Originally Posted by supertanch

It is more fluid than the residual in the nipple - I cleaned that before getting the cap on. Found the torquespec - apparently it's 17-20NM, for M10.1 screw - that is surprisingly large tbh... Originally Posted by thebishman
