Hey guys, just recently I ordered new pads/rotors along with new rear caliper seal kits. So yesterday I started working on the rear brakes and I got the rear calipers removed, disassembled, and cleaned. I then put in the new seals/boots and reinstalled the positions which wasn’t bad other then reinstalling the positions. So I then get them both mounted back onto the car along with the new pads/rotors and hooked everything back up. I also purchased a motive bleeder for the job (thing works awesome!) so I filled it with about 1500ml of fluid and hooked it up and set pressure at 2 bars. I went from Front driver, front pass., rear driver and finally on the rear pass. side. I’m just about done and I go to check the bleeder to see its completely empty and that I’ve introduced air into the reservoir and master cylinder. >:(
So after I regathered myself, I started again from the beginning and got all the way back to the rear pass. side again and the air is never ending. I’ve ran well over 4L of fluid through the system trying to flush it but the air is relentless. I’m still currently flushing the system hoping that the air will stop, I’ve checked every other line for leaks… nothing. So my first question is how should I go about removing the air in the system? should i keep flushing? I’ve heard of Vag-coming the ABS mod. to rid the system of the air, is that what I’m going to have to do? Also am I absolutely going to need to use a Vag-com to fix this problem?? Huge thanks in advance guys!!
