Hi All,

Are the brakes on these just as easy to bleed as non-ABS vehicles or are there some tricks to doing it? Also are any non-standard tools required to bleed these brakes properly? I want to change the fluid as the vehicle is 4 years old now and the brakes have never been done.

Any advice much appreciated
Rhys

Hi Rhys.

To bleed ABS brakes properly, you need a pressure bleeder & a scanner.

Its not good practice to bleed ABS system by just pumping the pedal & if you dont use a scanner, you wont get the old fluid out of the ABS pump unit.

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0
