Love your content 👍👍👍
Thank you!! Greetings from the USA Steven!
Just wondering if I’m the only one wondering what that 20 fuse goes too? And if it’s on certain models??
I always thought when bleeding brakes you went from the furthest wheel away from the master cylinder to the closest. Is this when you don't use a power bleeder?
Good question. This one is different according to the manual. I am pretty sure it is because this car has abs. However, I don’t think it will make that much of a difference if you start with the right rear wheel first.
I didn’t show it in the video, but I usually bleed each wheel twice anyways
@@OlisGarage thanks buddy
Hey I changed my master cylinder, bled it, bled the brakes manually with a friend.
Now my pedal goes to the floor when running. It’s normal when car is off. Once I start car it goes right to the floor.
Also my brake light flashes on cluster
No ABS light, only brake light flashing
ABS fuse is good
I bled the brakes twice
Could there be air in my abs module?
Any ideas
If im not wrong. ABS uses a magnet to detect the will spin. And that magnect catches so much trash on therun so maybe just clean that ABS sensor should fix it.
Turns out I had air in my ABS unit. Needed it bled with the computer. 1st time my friend say air in the ABS unit and he’s a VW Specialist who’s in his 50’s. I think I caused it by bleeding brakes with new master cylinder n one of the chambers didn’t have enuf fluid in it so I was forcing air in
Whats your thoughts on this... I can bleed 3 of my brakes but my back rear on my 1990 Cabriolet wont bleed, I have tried every way but nothing. I can push brake fluid up from line to front
I’d just install a new brake wheel cylinder. I have a video on replacing the rear brakes.
Hey Oli can I get your thoughts on something. My 1989 cabriolet is cranking but not starting. It used to do this every once in a while but now it will not start at all. I have replaced the spark plugs, I have not messed with the timing at all. I'm fairly certain the fuel pumps are running properly, as the pump primed when I turn the key. Thanks.
Pull a plug and hold it against the block. Does it spark when someone cranks the car?
Is this the same process for a vw golf mk4? Slave, fronts, then backs. Ive been doing back to front and my pedal goes straight to the floor and ive bleed each 3 times and still pedal has no resistance with no leaks in the brake system. Its got me stumped
Good question.
It depends on the brake system in your mk4. Two different ones are discussed in the service book. One type is slave, back, then front and the other is slave, front, then back.
Are you getting any air out of the lines when you’re bleeding it? Is there any pressure building up? What did you do to the car causing you to require the bleed?
@OlisGarage cheers for the reply. I had warped disks on the front and back, so I replaced the disks and the pads all around. And one caliper was seized solid on the back. So replaced that as well. I got air out the new caliper and then a steady stream of fluid. So then went round all the calipers back to front, when I got the front passanger caliper the pedal lost all resistance and went straight to the floor. So went back to the rear calipers and started bleeding again and can't get a solid pedal now. I've check for leaks through the whole system, and I'm stumped.
@@mrcabbagegaming4609 hmm. That is weird. It could be that your brake master failed. Not unheard of happening, but not expected. If you pump the brake a few times does it ever get firm? Did you suck the reservoir dry in the bleeding process?
These things are never hard. Just tricky. And in the process absolutely frustrating haha
@OlisGarage it is an odd one haha. If I pump the brake it goes firm while bleeding until i get to the front passanger caliper it goes soft again, the reservoir always had fluid in i topped it up after each caliper, I'll give it another go later see if I'm missing anything and double check everything I'll drop you an update.
Hi there , where are you located and I need some help on my 92 cabrio
