Hello, My name is Gary

I started to bleed the breaks, passenger rear went fine, but there is a blockage on the driver side rear line somewhere. Just wondering if there's a common problem for this rather than just start to start replacing the lines/ parts 1 by 1.

Thank's

Most likely a collapsed brake hose.

Start by trying to bleed from joints nearest to wheel. It could even be a plugged bleeder nut. Remove the nut to check.

Have you tried completely removing the bleeder screw? The bleeder itself can get blocked up.
