  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

I recently ordered and installed OEM Mando brake calipers from RockAuto and noticed fluid "sweating" around all four brake bleeder valves. I had over-tightened my last calipers, which is why I had to order new ones, so I was being very cautious when closing these valves after bleeding them. Despite that, I still see fluid sweating around all four valves. Is this normal?
My brake pedal feels okay, and I don’t see any brake fluid on the garage floor or dripping down the calipers — only around the bleeder valves. I even used my 1/4" torque wrench and re-tightened them to 12 Nm, which is just slightly under what Hyundai recommends.
Should I request a replacement, or should I look on eBay and try rebuilding one?
