Anybody know where I can get replacement break bleed screws in the UK?

Went to bleed the system the other day only to discover them rusted and stripped. So a bit of work with a file will be in order, but I can't locate any replacements.

Car: 2010 i30 1.6 Petrol

Should be fairly easy to find at a wreckers yard or if you want new then a Brake service shop or parts centre like Amcap - Coventries or whatever you have similar in the UK will stock or your local Hyundai service centre could also stock...give em a ring :)

Dealer or motor factors should be able to source.

Are they generic or specific to hy i30?

I would have thought these would be an item that would be a shared component with other similar vintage Hyundai and Kia vehicles in Europe (like the Kia Ceed)

Might need to put your safe search setting on though...  :crazy1:

No idea. Bit more digging and I've found a part, BBN90, which seems to be the one and is fairly generic, has a M10x1 thread FWIW. Will see how it matches.

Always seems to be a royal PITA to get parts for the i30, anybody would think it was some rare exotica, not a fairly popular motor that's been around a while.

We are lucky in Australia. Parts aren't usually a problem as the i30 is constantly in the top 5 or 6 best selling cars.

Well, they fit. Stand a little taller than the original screws, and they have 11mm bolt heads instead of 10mm, but they do the job.

Just be sure the taper is the same angle.
