Old brake fluid is very bad for master cylinders and calipers. Easier and cheaper to change fluid than replace a sticky caliper.

OK
You're right. I should do that too. I'll get around to it the next time it's not hot as hell or raining. |

Then look at the condition of the captured fluid. If it's shitty, keep bleeding until it looks fresh. Stay on top of the fluid in the reservoir. It's a bad day if the master cylinder sucks air.

So my friends, it appears to me that the mechanic said i just need to top up my fluid as it is swishing at stops and triggers the sensor. It is currently right at the min line, what level do you lads keep yours at? Do I need to wait for the engine to cool fully to place the new fluid?
Thank you friends |
