Issue with Brakes

give the guy a brayk

 

Proof reading what you right is a lost skill.

to, too, two are not the same

due, do, dew are not the same

break, brake, brayk are not the same.

 

Lol thanks just noticed that

 

I see what you did !

 

Watt???

 

That’s wut and watch what you write

 

Interesting. I get the same thing from time to time. Just replace the drivers' side but likely need to replace the passenger. It mostly works, but that one time you need it, it's a WTF moment. I just bled the brakes a few times but still get it. It makes me wonder if I have some leak somewhere. I see now fluid but anyway, to determine if the air is making its way in?

 

The other side is starting to make noise , no play in the bearing yet thou

 

that's what mine was doing...

 

If the bearing is "making noise", then its time to replace it.

 

Drive it til it breaks....

 

If the fluid is not lowering, then you don't have a leak. Make sure your bleeders are snugged up, I've never seen a condition where air would be introduced into the system where fluid wasn't seen leaking out, unless you have some kind of leak internal to the master cylinder that is causing fluid to bypass and introducing air bubbles from turbulence into the master cylinder. When you bleed them, start at the back passenger side, then onto back driver, then front passenger, and finish with front driver closest to the master.

 

yah didn't think I had a leak. I bled them in the manner you noted and did it a few times to make sure. Seemed ok but still had a softer than liked to feel to it. Before it was not as bad but accidentally pressed the pedal with the caliper off. I am thinking I may have some air in the master somehow which ill need to get techstream I believe to bleed that since its the electronic master. (unless there is a trick to it without)

 

That mindset will leave you stranded in BumFk nowhere.

 

Don't drive to BumFk nowhere, problem solved.

 

But I got a Toyota that I want to drive everywhere

 

So this ultimately was the answer to my issue in hindsight

winner winner chicken dinner

 

def going to replace the passenger side but I think I need to bleed again. They did not seem as soft before I had to bleed again.

Is there anyway to bleed the master without techstream?

 

Then send it! Check your breaks first tho.

 

If you break your brakes, it’s good to know immediately, nice call on checking them.
