Hi Folks, I am the new owner of a 2015 F Type R. I recently bled the brakes and the front driver’s side caliper is weeping from the bleeder screw. Jaguar doesn’t sell the bleeder screw separate for the 380mm caliper. Does anyone know the bleeder screw size so I can see if an auto store carries the generic size. It was the recommendation from the Jaguar parts department. Thanks, Shashi. NJ

 

Buy a second hand caliper from ebay ( then you have the part ?)

 

You can get a Speed Bleeder which replaces the bleeder screw with a one-way valve unit that is great for bleeding brakes. They appear to sell the part for the F-Type R:
Speed Bleeder Online Parts Catalog (showmetheparts.com)

 

This is a common part sold on ebay c £10 each.

Just need to determine the thread size.

According to the Carlson catalog p/n H9407 is the bleeder screw for the front caliper.

 

The actual Speed Bleeder website looks like it was created about 1992.

 

Yeah, you would think that a bleeder these days would be controlled from your phone.

"ALEXA, bleed my LF brake" LOL No APP for THAT, yet.

 

Thanks, everyone!
