Brake bleeding order - Niall - 18-02-2012
Anyone? I've fitted my gti6 brakes today and having trouble with them. What is the bleeding order on a 306 with 4 wheel abs?
Re: Brake bleeding order - Daniel306 - 18-02-2012
Normally with any car its closest to the Mc and work away
Re: Brake bleeding order - Connor - 18-02-2012
Furthest away from master cylinder, so N/S/R, O/S/R, N/S/F, O/S/F

This is how the Haynes says to do it but who believes that!
Connor I did it in that order. Will retry in the morning.
Re: Brake bleeding order - Connor - 18-02-2012
Wtf seriously? Ive always been tought/told furthest away from the MC
Re: Brake bleeding order - Niall - 18-02-2012
I thought it could be different as the ph3s have the abs pump and iirc there is a one way valve in there.
Re: Brake bleeding order - Daniel306 - 18-02-2012
iv always done it closest first and have never had any problems so far
Re: Brake bleeding order - Jonny b - 18-02-2012
haynes says try both ways ha ha
Re: Brake bleeding order - Ian - 18-02-2012
When I fitted my brembos I done furthest away then worked closer. No problem at all.
Re: Brake bleeding order - 4WayDiablo - 19-02-2012
I was taught on my machanics course at college (agree with connor on this one) ALWAYS furthest first

Did you get it done?
Re: Brake bleeding order - 4WayDiablo - 25-02-2012
Also kris b says furthest first
Re: Brake bleeding order - Niall - 25-02-2012
Yep it's all bled now. Still having problems due to the f*cked pads I was supplied with. Will have to go and buy some more on payday.
Re: Brake bleeding order - 4WayDiablo - 25-02-2012
Buy my brembo's they have gooood pads :-)

Nope. I would only be buying them for how they look. Also don't want to have to space the front wheels
Re: Brake bleeding order - 4WayDiablo - 25-02-2012
For how they look what about the awesome stopping power :-P
Oh yeah 1.8's cant go fast enough to need the stopping power :-P
Re: Brake bleeding order - devils_fuel - 25-02-2012
Furthest from MC I was taught, always done it and no probs
. Niall how many miles since the last bleed, might be worth another quick one now the systems settled again

Probs about 250.
It needs new pads. One of them is so f*cked its not even making complete contact with the disc. There's still some surface rust there lol
Re: Brake bleeding order - Ian - 25-02-2012
These the front pads Niall?
Re: Brake bleeding order - Niall - 25-02-2012
Unfortunately so. You must of done some hard driving as they have been over heated at some point haha. Will wack some new pads in soon.
Re: Brake bleeding order - Ian - 25-02-2012

To me at that mileage, i'd have the car on the ramp and give it 1 quick bleed on all 4 calipers for piece of mind
. Then in your case I'd change the pads..so new pads and with freshly bleed brakes..
Re: Brake bleeding order - Niall - 25-02-2012
Tbh I don't think there is air in there. I did have problems at first with that but it's all sorted now. Pedal feels good, just doesn't brake as well as it should haha
Re: Brake bleeding order - devils_fuel - 25-02-2012
what the car or the front brakes don't feel like they should? would you need to change the MC because of the calipers ?
Re: Brake bleeding order - Niall - 25-02-2012
Brakes didn't feel right. I did chance the MC as well. All fine now though except the pads.
