Grab some new copper washers for the banjo fitting. Not sure what size they are though.

Thanks ill try that hiw many washers should be on there i have one which was under the bolt but didnt see one under the brake pipe end

There should be two. One above and below the banjo.

That will probably be why i didnt take one off there but saying that it was loose and ive always thought the brakes travelled a bit

As per the thread i went to skoda to get some copper washers to replace on the banjo but the said they dont sell them separately I have to replace brake lines does anyone know the size of the washers as I don't have time to take it apart until Thursday and didn't want the hassle of messing around then, I just want to have what I need and do it Thursday morning
