Vcds brake bleeding

[SHUk]

Hello

I've read somewhere that you need to use vcds to cycle and bleed the brakes when you want to flush the system.

Can someone please advise how to do this process and its overdue.

Thanks

You don't need to do it unless you have air in the ABS unit or have replaced the ABS unit...

If you do a normal pressure bleed using a tool such as the gunsons eezibleed then you won't have to use VCDS or cycle the ABS pump...

You just bleed as normal (no pumping the pedal as this can cause damage to the MC seals) using the pressure bleeder.. OSR, NSR then OSF and NSF... finally bleed the MC from both the nipples and I would also bleed the clutch as this uses the same fluid reservoir

This is exactly what I needed! Clear concise instructions =] cheers <tuffty/>...

Don't use more than around 15psi pressure when you bleed... the instructions say 20psi max from memory but 15psi is enough so have a means of inflating the tyre afterwards handy too
