Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 2Original post

Theres a few options. They can use a helicoil kit or drill out to m12 and use an m12 repair nipple. e.g. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/M12-X-1-0...-Nipple-Screw-for-Brake-Calipers/111874888994

POST 3Original post

I thought he meant the clamping bolt hole threads that hold the caliper on as they'd need a much more robust solution than with a bleed nipple.

POST 4Original post

If its the caliper it can only be the bleed nipple or fluid supply fitting, the caliper mounting has it's threads in the hub.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
