i thought i would loosen up the bleed nipples on the other car tonight

drivers side no problem
passenger side seems like it wants to break too(it hasnt yet,its all lubed up)
is it a common thing for only the passenger side to be seized/very tight?
thats the side that went on the other car

I think it was my passenger side that sheared also

Maybe its cos that side is subject to puddles, dirt etc that near the curb ??

I had to have my bleed nipple EDM'd out at work, found out it actually cost £3000 due to labour and wear and tear on the machine .....opps !!

Did the job though !!
