DIY Brake Fluid change - questions....

Featured Replies

I have a 2.0TDI Superb III with DSG that is due a brake fluid change.   As I have a Sealey VS820 pressure bleeder tool and enough common sense and experience, I'm planning to do it myself.

 

Is there anything I need to be aware of (ABS unit.....?) or can I just hook it up and get the job done, starting with the furthest caliper first?   

 

Any tips would be much appreciated.    I presume standard Dot4 fluid (I normally use Comma) will do the job nicely ?

As long as you don't let the reservoir run dry and get air into the ABS you can bleed as normal, but if you do get air into the ABS then you'll need VCDS or similar to put the unit into service mode to bleed the air out 

I think most of your questions will find an answer here:
