Is it not necessary to suck some brake fluid out of the reservoir before you squeeze the pistons back into the calipers?

Thanks for making videos like this one. They're very helpful.

@calarooni As long as it's at the proper level and not over filled, you should be fine.

what is the tool called that is suppose to be used instead of the allen wrench?

[1aauto]

@meria05 You may be referring to a torx bit.

@1aauto

What torx bits and hex bits are most common on vehicles now days ??

[1aauto]

@brandon1997bmx It depends on the vehicle. It seems as though the hex ones are pretty popular, but I've also seen many star tipped ones used to hold various things together too.

@weepulization only time you bleed brakes is when you replace a brake line, a hose, or a caliper. or any part of brake system in which fluid escaped the system, on this type of job only thing you need to remember is when job is done pump up the pedal
