Basic Maintenance: Brake Fluid

[rdprdp01]

My biggest reservations are the length of this procedure and the fact that brake fluid is pumped in the opposite direction of normal flow, meaning that any sludge that has accumulated in the calipers must be flown through the ABS, brake master, compensation port, and back to the reservoir, as well as air bubbles in the brake system when this procedure is completed.

I ultimately came to the same conclusion, which is why I followed the traditional method. And I feel particularly proud of my decision after reading your post. You remain my mechanic role model! David
