bleeding
hi
is there any real advantage by doing clutch/brake bleeding with pressure?(like someone to press the brake pedal/clutch pedal)instead of just open the nipple and let it bleed itself. |

I tried gravity bleed and gave up after 30 minutes. Might be fine if you can leave the car sit for a while.

A getto trick is to use a large syringe matched to a vacuum line hose that fits tight on the nipple.
Connect syringehoseatron-lossen nipple-suck fluid- tighten nipple-empty syringe and go again. I've done this a few times, never had a issue.

But it needs good bleeding, 100-200kms of driving and bleeding again as to replace all the old brake fluid. |

Get a scan tool that does ABS bleed, problem solved. Cheapest one on Amazon is around $225.
