Bleeding Brakes

[jay m]

just bought my new brakes and pads and after fitting the front set i realised they need bled. from my low knowlege of cars i dont know what order to bleed them, on my last car it was starting at the front right and then working anti-clockwise around the car, is this the case with my is200?

any help much appreciated, thanks.

Hi,

I think you should bleed the brakes from the farthest wheel first etc.

I changed my front discs and pads and didnt bleed breaks is this bad ????

Did u have to clamp down the pistons on the calipers?

If so i would give them a quick bleed, doesn't take more than 15mins!

Nope the pad went in ok after wards gave the pedal a few pump and all was ok might do it and upgrade the brake lins at the same time
