Spacemaker Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Hi guys After a bit of help, I’ve done a few track days recently i thought it’d be a good idea to give the fluid a flush. All was going well untill I got to the rear right calliper, I’m getting constant very small air bubbles and what looks like dirt being pulled through. This is only on the inside nipple which has me stumped. All other callipers are Bleeding up fine as is the outside nipple on the rear right. I’ve gone through approx 2 litres of fluid thinking it was just air in the system. im guessing there is something wrong with the calliper but after a visual inspection I can’t see anything obvious, no leaks etc any help appreciated cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr v6 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Without stating the obvious, you sound more than capable of doing this job, but could it just be a case of the piece of hose you're using isn't 100% tight around the nipple causing a tiny bit of air to enter the hose where you've pushed it on, making it look like air is in the system?

Spacemaker Posted June 28, 2020 Author Share Posted June 28, 2020 Thanks , I did think about this and perhaps that might explain the dirt being pulled in,but I can’t imagine why it wouldn’t do it on all the others? pedal feel is ok but not as good as it has been in the past( hence the reason for a flush), although I’m getting a bit of pad knock back on track As I’m occasionally having to give the pedal a tap before a big braking zone. I’ll try a new bit of hose and hopefully that’s all it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie_r32 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Also worth putting some grease around the base of hose as that can help seal it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
