The dealer has confirmed what MJ said. Ally caliper - steel nipple - electrolysis nackers it.
They are sending the caliper of for re engineering and I presume, an oversized bleed nipple. Helicoils will not be used.

Since I called the dealer they've been brilliant, no messing or difficulty. And they've left me with a Q5 loaner. Its a gutless 2.0 diesel, but otherwise good. And it has B&O which is nearly as good as the one in the 8. With the addition of being able to play any of my songs off Google Play.
