Brake bleeding
Does anyone have experience bleeding brakes on our cars? I plan on doing some track days in the near future and want to add stainless steel brake lines and change out the brake fluid.
I've done plenty of brakes in my life, but my buddy thought a diagnostic tool may be needed to cycle the solenoids in order bleed them properly. My car is too new and not supported by my scanner. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. |

you don't need that unless you let the ABS pump go dry, and thats very hard to do. I use a motive pressure bleeder and the BMW cap that goes with it.
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/mvp-0100/overview/ and I suggest staying away from speedbleeders. They have a compound on the threads that makes it easy to strip the caliper threads. I have a brake rebuilding and powdercoating business and I see it quite often. |
