Hey there ive just changed pads ,rotors and lines on series 5 and after bleeding the brakes several times i just cant get a hard peddle?? the brakes were fine before i did the work and ive bleed from everywhere possible and done a full fluid flush, peddle will come hard after three pumps but still no air coming out the bleeders???



Any ideas would be apprieciated

Dan

try to gravity bleed them.



just barely crack all 4 bleeder screws open and let them bleed themselves. one your done that rebleed all 4 starting with the pass. rear, then drivers rear, the pass. front, and drivers front. of course make sure the resevoir is always full

You know what's funny? I've bled my system twice, the pedal still feels mushy, but the car brakes just fine, as far as I can tell. I've got a brand new master cylinder, SS braided lines, and flushed the whole braking system and I've always remembered her pedal feeling mushy compared to other cars, but its the first time in six months I've actually gotten to drive her so I can't compare to how she used to be, unfortunately. But it doesn't firm up after multiple rapid presses so I don't think theres any air in the lines.



A note: get speed bleeders. They work great, bleed very rapidly and do an excellent job. I bled my entire system twice fully in about an hour, by myself. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png
