as u can see the wet looking one is the one i need to replace, which line is this? i went searching for brake lines online and they are different in price depending on which brake they go to.

(yes i know they all need replaced but i dont have the funds to replace all of them right now, so just the broken one)

It appears to be one of the lines that runs to the master cylinder.

Local TV consumer advocate had a piece on the news last week about these. No recall but GM has a $500 kit instead of the $2k they have been charging. Scary.

Yes you will need to bleed the brakes. Check out YouTube for that. The EBCM will also need to be bleed, that has to be done with a Tech2 at the dealer.

Hello,
is there any way going around the dealer to get the EBCM bled?
Thanks.
