Hi folks,
In the process of changing out my rear brakes last night, I ran into a couple problems.
(1) The LR pads were about at 60% life left
(2) The RR pads were worn down to the linings and a little beyond
So I replaced everything, lubed the slider pins and proceeded to do a little bleeding.
First tried the pedal pumping 2 person method: no fluid came out of the LR caliper. Strange, so I hooked up the Motive Power Bleeder. As soon as I had a few PSI fluid started to flow.
Also, brake pedal goes to floor with a couple "notchy" points in travel and comes back up by itself.
I'm going to go back today and bleed all 4 corners, clutch and ABS pump using the Motive Bleeder and hope this cures it.
But why would the pedal not push out fluid on the LR while the Motive does?
