What a pain. A big more bleeding should sort it. I presume they have the computer to allow the bleeding procedure. |

Was much better than it was when I started it this morning. Still took it back and the boss said that the high performance brakes can be a pain to bleed, as you have to run diagnostics and 28 pumps per wheel etc, so I was happy they knew the correct bleed procedure. He got in it and said he could see what I meant, so I left it with them again.

Does anyone know why you have to put the car in 'bleed mode'? I have the gap tool and I'm fitting new rear calipers tomorrow. |

I believe it does something with the ABS valves/pump to purge any air out. Might be wrong, and it might do other stuff too.
