    Brake caliper bleed screws are the same, yes.

      That's what I thought. I have no idea what was on my front left, but to be safe I have now purchased 4 new correct bleeder screws. I figure new ones are less likely to break off in the caliper.

      I am glad I am finally in a house and I can work on the car myself. Seems like that is the only way to be sure things are right.

        The should have been the same when the car left the factory, but in the meantime replacement of calipers or bleed screws could have occurred.
        The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
