So,

I'm missing a blue bleeder cap. Went looking online, nothing like what we have on our cars. So I looked and finally found a part number for the cap and bleeder screw. Had the dealer order it and they came but they were totally incorrect (to small).

The parts guy thinks he found a number but not sure if it's correct, does anyone here know the correct # for it?

Any help will be much.

Thanks
Andy

You can try to use the number and cross reference yourself via sites like infinitipartsusa.com or something to see if it looks different than the original...

Just got a call from infiniti parts and the ones that show on the big brakes are smaller than the others. Such a joke. He's still trying, maybe it's time to put a hoody on and look at night lol.

I'll let you know what he finds out

Well this is how the story ends, apparently the caps (large blue ones) aren't available through Infiniti. What I ended up getting were the small black caps, I then looked at the new car's came with and they came with the small caps as well. Do any of you guys have the large blue caps? I think Infiniti changed venders.

I have no clue on how to load pics. I wish I did.

I'd be more than happy to do it.

If I get your number I can text them to you.

Let me know.

I upgraded to a brand new set of Akebono calipers last year from the dealership, mine were sent with black bleeder caps.

Ya, even the new cars with the sport package has the small caps.

I'm over it now just liked the others a lot.

Hats off to Nick at the dealership, he went above and beyond for me.

Thanks

I don't think that it's a required, however it does help firm up your pedal.

Hope that helps you
