Brake Fluid Renewal

Postby jon_viola » Thu Jul 03, 2014 12:46 pm

Hi

It's time to renew my brake fluid as it's been 2 years almost. I'm going to try the new ATE SL6. Can anyone tell me the procedure for correct renewal? I know there's an order to it but can't remember what!

My car has ABS.

Thanks

Use a pressure bleed kit seems to be the best option and don't forget to do the clutch as well as it shares the same fluid.

Yep will do- I seem to remember there's an order to it though, the order in which you do the wheels. Anyone with any suggestions?
