I HAVE JUST CHANGED OVER FROM 330MM DISCS AND 6 POT CALIPERS DOWN TO STANDARD DISCS AND CALIPERS.

THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS FINE B 4 I CHANGED THE CALIPERS OVER .

WHEN I CHANGED THE FRONT CALIPERS BACK TO STANDARD I BLED THEM AS U DO. BUT THEN THE PEDAL STILL WENT TO THE FLOOR, SO I THOUGH ITS OK ILL JUST BLEED THE REAR BRAKES AND THAT WILL BE IT, BUT NO , I BLED THEM AND THE PEDAL STILL WENT TO THE FLOOR.

SO I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW.

IS THERE A SPECIAL WAY OF BLEEDING THEM LIKE U HAVE TO DO A CERTAIN WHEEL FIRST OR WHAT, ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATFULL

THE CAR IS 4 SALE AND I HAVE SOMEONE COMING TO LOOK AT HER 2 MOZZ SO I NEED HELP ASAP.


CHEERS BEN

 

if i remember correctly u need to bleed the system with the ignition on and always start at the wheel furthest away from the fluid res.

are you deffinately using the same fluid? is it new fluid from a sealed container?

 

just tryed that chap and nothing happens.

still the same.

anyone else???


ben

 

might have flipted the seal in master pos, my advice is crack all niples open and leave to gravity bleed for about 10 mins keep topping up fluid then start from furthest wheel and then bleed rest, have u tryed clamping all flexis?

 

ive good braided hoses, ive tryed doing it again even with the ignition on but the same again, there is 100% no air in the system now so it must lay within the master cylinder, if the seal had popped would it leak cozz there is no leak at all from anywere


BEN

 

Think you've done a Master Cyl seal, mate ... Common problem around here!

 

very very strange but its all sorted now, the problem was the standard calipers i put on were seized up,

i have no idea why the pedal would go to the floor.

i put my willwoods back on bled them and they are perfectly fine now.

the pedal is nice and hard

so we no something that we did not know yesterday,

DO NOT PUT SEIZED CALIPERS ON YA CAR



but very very strange anyway

Ben
