Rear brake valve (91 200 20V Avant)

[Audi Quattro]

Thanks for the info. I'll be going to Sears tomorrow and hopefully it will save me the time + headache of removal of the valve.
  I will post back what happens.

  On the car.  If I remember correctly, I had to use something to help hold the valve against turning (Big waterpump pliers?) so I didn't damage whatever held it in place while I turned the fitting out.  I think I had to cut off the tubing and use one of those extractor type of sockets like these:  http://www.epinions.com/content_120728161924.

  Was that with the valve on or off the car?
I'm leaning towards removing the valve off the car, then it will be much easier to remove.
any help with the removal of the valve would be helpful.
thanks

   I soaked mine with Kroil for a couple days and was able to get those   
   fittings out of the valve.
