Re: Another Leaking Banjo Bolt

could be;
  • weak grooves (although many fittings are smooth)
  • caliper fitting land is not flat
  • overtightening and distortion - breaker bar not required
  • surrounding cast interference with fitting orientation
  • combination of issues

as for copper washers, I've used dozens of brands and 'close' sizes without issue

good read on the subject - good luck!
