    this has no doubt been covered a heap of times already but the internet is so slow here at work it would take me all day too look through all of the search results!

    so does anyone have or know were i can find a guide of how too bleed the brakes on my car?

    also do they have to be done in a certain order?

    cheers.

    I think the haynes manual will have a guide on how to do it. I was taught to bleed the caliper furthest away from the fluid resivour first. 20 pumps per caliper I would do. Make sure you have enough fluid to keep topping up 2-3 litres should do it.
