Not good buddy!!! But as others said, if flexi hoses between car and caliper, get pinched, twisted, hung etc, they can seal/blok/let inner core pipe break thin leak or as Urs sounds, lock off and burst under high pressure as fluid can't be released or pressure exertied on disc ! * +

@ mixdup, don't you love a call from the mrs that starts with the words 'there's something wrong with the car'. Mine rang n said the wheel looked like it's falling off. When i got there, the wheel trim was loose, she thought the wheel was fallin off! Gotta love em *
