Posted this on e30 tech as well. Here's what I'm up against:
Installed SS lines front and rear on my 89 325i as part of a suspension/bushing overhaul. The rear lines went on without issue, but the fronts are leaking at the caliper.
Odd thing is, as I was tightenning the line, it suddenly became very easy to turn, but wasn't getting tighter. There's still a couple mm gap between the shoulder of the line and the caliper, and I can't tighten it to close that gap or loosen it to remove the line - it just spins in place on the caliper.
Anybody experienced this before? At this point I just want to remove the line and install the stock one, but I can't get the SS line off.
