Where can i buy the lower rubber seal on the Sport Brake Bleeder Screw
Can anyone please help me find the part number or where to buy the rubber seal below the brake bleeder screw. I'm not looking for the bleeder cap. I just need all four of the lower rubber seals. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Good luck. I found it in the FSM, but none of the online parts store appear to list it separately. Probably best to check with a dealer - hopefully you can buy it individually or it at least comes with the bleeder valve. Worst case and probably most likely is Nissan includes that part as part of the caliper assembly and you have to buy the entire thing for that one stupid cap (that's what it's called in the FSM).
Nissan likes to make cheap parts stupid expensive by pairing them with another part that is very expensive and/or labor intensive to replace. For example, Nissan says the $50 differential bushing is part of a $900 subframe member that must be replaced (add $1500 in labor) when the rubber seal inside the bushing bursts

If you can't find the right part, an o-ring may do the job.

Thank you JARblue & SouthARK. I see that they are not even listed as an OEM part on the Nissan parts website
I found the solution at ROCKAUTO. I took a screen shot of the part number etc. Last edited by Richie370Z; 03-03-2017 at 12:32 PM. Reason: Found solution |

Just to Confirm
The parts I got at Rock Auto were the exact OEM ones. The kit also included the bleeder screw caps and all the rubber gaskets for a sport break caliper rebuild. The front kit was $3.88 for both and the rear kit was $5.88 for both. Under $10.00. Extremely satisfied
