If the brake pedal move was "softer" (to fall), and its stroke increased, then the system has air. This affects braking efficiency. Pumping the brakes just need. Otherwise, the creation of emergency situations is guaranteed.

Bleeding the brakes required and after any, even minor, repairs (if there was an intervention). Each specialist their "keys" and "chips". We will examine the basics. Pumping the brakes will require participation of an assistant.

The procedure below cannot be performed on vehicles equipped with ABS (avtomatizovani system), as for pumping the brake system of these vehicles require other special tools. In this case it is better to entrust to specialists.

There are several types of braking systems. Is diagonal, there is a parallel. Bleeding the brakes starts with the most remote highways in order not to remain air in the system.

Parallel pumping system: rear right and rear left, then front right, after — front left. In the diagonal the same pumping of the brakes is somewhat different: rear right, front left and rear left, front right (as they are in separate circuits of the brake master cylinder). If you had a fluid leak on one of the contours, the second contour will help to stop the car. Braking performance drops considerably, however, with the included emergency signals you will be able to get to the nearest service station and repair and pump the brakes.

First. In the case when air gets in the system because of decline of liquid level in a nutritious tank or when brake pipe is separated from the master cylinder, pump needs brake components (all four).

Second. When brake pipe separated only at the wheel, and the pump only need the caliper or brake cylinder.

Third. In case of separation of the brake pipe somewhere between the master cylinder and a brake bleed should be part of the system served by the disconnected pipe.

And now — the progress of the work, whose goal — to relieve residual air unit (brake booster) by repeated taps on the brake pedal. The engine, of course, must be silenced.

Remove the lid from the tank of the main cylinder and fill it with brake fluid. Set the cover in place. Do not skimp on the liquid! Buy high quality only!

Prepare a container (transparent, clean), a piece of tube (plastic or rubber) suitable to the bleed screw diameter (it should fit to stretch), brake fluid, a wrench.

Start with the right rear wheel. Weaken slightly the bleeder and clamped it in that position, which will allow it to quickly weaken.

One end connected to the bleeder valve (to be fitted), the second — is immersed in the prepared transparent container of brake fluid.

Now the work enters assistant. He has to press the brake pedal slowly several times to create pressure in the system and hold in the down position the pedal.

Now open the bleeder and wait for the start of the exit fluid. You need to follow the air bubbles coming out of the tube immersed in the container. With the deceleration of fluid flow in the tube fitting hold and ask the assistant to release the pedal.

Manipulation repeat until the brake fluid will not flow clean, free air. Then hold the fitting and turn alternately to the front left wheel, the left rear and front right. The procedure is repeated every time. Always check the fluid level in the tank master cylinder.

At the end tank of the main cylinder to fill with fluid. Check the operation of the brakes. If there are gaps, pumping the brakes is repeated. The pedal should be firm.

Important: again brake fluid is not used!
