Escos...Bleeding the brakes

[Gaz w]

Ive never had to bleed brakes before on a car that has ABS , is there a certain way to bleed bakes with ABS or do you still bleed them the same way as a non ABS equipped car?
I will hopefully have the standard brakes back on the escos at the weekend and obviously will require bleeding

will deffo be in the manual Gaz, just click on the manual you wish to look at.

Its worth reading the manual like Dave says, especially for the rears because there is a knack as they are assisted, so pump themselves through. but the fronts are as normal, start with the closest to the master cylinder first.

start with furthest away 1st mate

drivers rear open nipple touch brake pedal slowly with ign on
fluid will start to come from nipple once air bubbles stop do opposite side
then do fronts drivers side 1st as normall turn ign off for this

then repeat process to be sure

if unsure call me

Would you be able to do the rears using an Eezibleed kit?

[Mark Barber]

no
may damage the pump
