Bleeding Brake System

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Nissan 350Z. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION: While bleeding, pay attention to master cylinder fluid level.
  1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
  2. Connect a vinyl tube to the rear right bleed valve.
  3. Fully depress brake pedal 4 to 5 times.
  4. With the brake pedal depressed, loosen the bleed valve to let the air out, and then tighten it immediately.
  5. Repeat steps 3, 4 until no more air comes out.
  6. Tighten the bleed valve to the specified torque. Refer to "COMPONENTS ". "COMPONENT ", "COMPONENTS ", "COMPONENTS ".
  7. In steps 2 to 6 below, with the master cylinder reservoir tank filled at least half way, bleed air from the front left, rear left, and front right tires, in that order.
