Sheesh, I'd have a tough time doing that; I'm only good for about 45k/yr.

Wow - I can see why such a lease is an expensive way to go. You're looking
at $3500 just to use this car for 5 months, then another $30,000 to
purchase? No way that any reasonable person can put on the remaining lease
miles on this car in those 5 months, so ten cents per mile ends up
realistically more like 50 or 60 cents...
And its a 3 year old (going on 4 later this year) medium performance car -
having been replaced by the SLK55 AMG for a few years already!) The present
leaser really got taken to the cleaners, IMO - having driven the car so few
miles. Assuming it was a 24 month lease, that means its cost him around
$6/mile, + maintenance and operating expenses!
Also, since when is an SLK a front wheel drive (FWD)?? Does anyone proof
read these items???

It's got 2100 miles on it, with 5 months remaining on the lease.
30k+ miles available to use in those five months.

You are (or were in this case) using flared wrenches, right? I learned a
long time ago to not even attempt most any brake fitting with a normal open
end wrench...
I'm sure at this point my dad would say something like get the torch, I
would cringe at the though of how flammable brake fluid is, and then he
would spend 2-15 minutes on it and have it emerge without issue...

Howdy!
The bleed valves on the rear calipers of my 91 300D 2.5T are corroded
so
badly they will not unscrew. Attempts to grab them with a vise-grips or
similar results in the bleeders starting to collapse as they are turned.
I haven't had any luck with easy-outs - last time I tried one it broke off
inside the bleeder! No fun there!
So, what works? What doesn't?
