Brakes on 2004 3.3 G/V (T&C)
#3
Thanks for replying.
The problem is solved - partially at least. I had fitted new brakes all round (pads, callipers and rotors) but couldn't bleed the rt rear/lt front. The brakes had been ok before but a slight shudder from the rear on heavy braking. I eventually found a split in that circuit's pipe - m/cyl to abs block. It looked impossible to remove the pipe from that block, hence the post.
I've now cut a hole in the floor to access that pipe union which, sods law, was the least accessible on the block. Just got to make up and fit a new, slightly re-routed pipe.
It seems the pipe split while bleeding the good circuit as no leak before but pipe had rubbed thin against wiring conduit. I only got to find the split by taking out the wheel-arch liner.

As a follow-up, in the end I had to order a new pipe. Being in the UK, it had to be ordered through a FIAT dealer and sent from Italy. I decided to get both pipes that run from the master cyl. to ABS module, to be on the safe side while I had the hole in the floor!!
They were awkward to get in but everything now ok.
