Bad Brake Line...
I got a leak on the rear brake line going into the rear driver wheel. I got to get this fixed pronto- so I need to get it done at the shop. No one will quote me over the phone (big surprise there)
How much am I looking at?

I just had to replace three hard lines. I went to Napa and bought the metric thread bubble flare straight lines for like 6 bucks a pop and used a bender and bent them myself. No one had replacement lines, and toyota told me they weren't sure if they could order them, so I decided to just bend my own. Probably won't quote you because they are just going to bend them themselves anyways. Pretty quick and easy job, only took me about an hour to do all three. I feel you would get ripped pretty bad if you had someone do it. replace the lines, bleed everything, including the lspv, and you will be on your way.

My local dealer was able to order me a new rear brake line (the price wasn't bad at all) They come with all the bends all ready done and all the fittings on, ready to install. I'd highly recommend the factory lines, stopping is the most important feature of a vehicle. They will just need your vin# to order the correct lines. Of course you'll need to bleed the air out after.
