Rear brake valve (91 200 20V Avant)

[Audi Quattro]

  I've given the penetrating fluid two days, and nothing.
  Heat will be an issue, because of the tight clearance.
  i think best bet will be to remove valve, if possible.
  thanks

If this works, perhaps you won't have to remove the proportioning
valve. Sorry, cannot help on that issue...

(however, expecting I will see it soon, please let us all know)

see how the valve (443.614.151 E) is attached to the rear frame. looks to be
welded on, unless it just slides out? this line is rusted in pretty good,
and looks like the only way to remove it would be to put it (443.614.151 E)
on a bench vice and then try.
