Bleeder screws that work 200 1992

The hex on the front caliper bleeder screw became a size that no wrench would fit.

The thread for that bleeder is 1/4-28. Napa part number 27864 fits and works. The hex is somewhat more substantial then the stock screw.

The rear ATE caliper bleeder is an M7-1.0 pitch thread. Napa part number 23928 works for those.

Not having tried these on your car, you will have to make sure that they work for you. Brakes are important...

    Greg they sound like a great replacement. What do you think the metalurgic makeup is on them?

      Probably the same recycled Renaults that the originals were made out of. For a couple bucks each, I'm replacing them when I flush the brake fluid. Napa has the caps for them too, but you have to get 10 at a time.
