    Yeah I couldn't believe the prices of the hoses, and I got the a discount cuz I worked there. But I hope this will solve your problem.

    they didnt exactly "GO" it was a friendly tip that since this caliper was siezed up the inside of the hose was deteriorating and creating a flap inside the hose taht would allow fluid out but not back in when the pedal was realeased resulting in pressure still at the pads.

    yea man i have no clue...new rotors, calipers, pads, rear brake hose and now a master cylinder...i think my brake total is at like $900...maybe more.

    my mechanic is a good guy and is reasonable wth prices.
