I changed the driver side caliber and line and passenger side line and front pads and bled all four. Now both front and passenger rear is leaking from around the gold washers. How do I stop the leak?

Good evening.

Recheck your work and be sure the banjo bolt is tight.

Did you use new copper gaskets?

Check and make sure there is not an old gasket on the sides as well.

You will need to start back at the beginning. Replace the parts you replaced again as there may be a defect with the parts.
