Message constant pressure on the system, or the two person style. There are 3 lines to crack and just let the fluid run into the towel.

I bled for literally hours when I initially changed my calipers, motor running, motor off, let the actuator cycle, all different corners, rapid pump, slow pump. Didn't matter, you can't move enough fluid to move an air bubble from the actuator down through the caliper.

People say it was a cost cutting measure for Nissan to remove the bleed nipples, I would say it was a job security measure so that brake jobs had to be done by the dealer using a computer to actuate it. Exactly like VW, BMW, etc.

1996 TT #61 of 300
