brake bleeding prob

[flatout]

well lads havin a bit of trouble! was doin a fluid flush (should have left well enough alone) filled the system back bacuk up and bleed everything, prob is i cant get the system to hold pressure, if i pump the brakes it will hold but when i take my foot off and put it back on foot goes 2 the floor! any1 ever has this prob before???

sounds like you still have air in the system man try to bleed it diagonaly as in front left, back right and then do front right back left sometimes they can be hard to bleed

Dec is right in what he's saying but the correct sequence is:

If the above doesn't work then give us a shout, I have the compressor and Vacuum bleeder there and that'll sort it for ya

Same as myself man, no matter how many times I do it I've always to got back a check it in the manual

If youve had the calipers off the car-make sure theyre not back on upside down-all nipples must point upwards. otherwise theyll never bleed

i always bleed furthest from the master cylinder and work from there!!!
