Changing front calipers

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: chris

When you change the front calipers is the bleed ing on the Mark the same as every other car I've done or is there a special procedure because of the ABS? 've never had a car with ABS so I have no idea, and I'm driving it from RI to AZ in about 3 weeks. So I have to get it done. Thanks

it should be the same just dont leve the line open too long and you will be fine. i allways crack the line loose first, then tighten it back up a little then remove caliper (leaving line still attached) install the new caliper then just undo the line from one and put it right onto the other and you wont loose a lot of fluid

What's the order? Which wheel should you start with?

Posted by: chris

I always start furthest away from the master cylinder. In this case right front.
