Brake Fluid Bleed
When to service: A dropping brake pedal is the result of lack of pneumatic pressure in the brake system. Sometimes this is caused by air pockets in the system. Other times it’s the symptom of a failing master cylinder or a leak in the system. Bleeding the brake fluid of air pockets can prevent a dropping brake pedal.
Apply pressure to the brake system and open bleeding screws on the brake calipers or wheel cylinders
Add OE specific brake fluid as needed
