Just a quick question

Not bad, just got the VX back from the shop/ $7 for a new line. $10 for new connection, $7 for new brake fluid and some labor. Gotta love this Michigan salt, and the fact that the thing s almost 15 years old. Turns out the connection at the end of the line rusted/corroded and the leak was right at the connection. But it goes and stops again which is nice.

sure do not miss those Michigan winters and SALT. Since one rust through, think come springtime, I'd be doing a very thorough inspection of the rest of the system, might not have a church parking lot to cruise into next time

Wow, that is just sad to hear, I HATE RUST . Was this connection at the master cylinder or at the flexible line?

Sounds like you have an honest mechanic! This is one of those repairs where mechanics can really take advantage of customers.
