so interesting timing, i'm having a similar issue. i'm not at the point though where i believe the caliper is damaged. i just cant see how it could be THAT easy to damage the seat if the threads show no issues whatsoever.
it appears to be such a rampant issue for people including vette, camaro, caddy v series, gt350 ... weeping around the threads.
Mechanic or otherwise, i just doesnt make senese. i pulled a few bleeder valves, and they look fine. no scoring, no thread damage whatsoever.
i'm going to blast them to some brake clean, maybe add some high-temp thread sealant and see what happens.
wondering if anyone else has experience with this a the torque value they used to solve the issue. i've seen a few post from reliable people alluding to needing more torque than they expected. wonder how much
