bleeding brakes.. - W1ll - 21-03-2013
I wonder if anyone can help me, I have bled brakes before but just looking for some reassurance really and/or guidance.
I am changing calipers and brake lines to braided lines on an r32 (i will also be doing the exact same thing on my 306 but not for a few weeks yet) and wondered if anyone has any tips on how to do it because obviously i cant block off each corner like i have done in the past with flexi hoses...

Just change one hose at a time.
Undo it caliper end then clamp it off.
Fit new hose to caliper end, then undo the body side union, whip the old line out the way any connect the braided line up.
Minimal fluid loss but you will still have a fair amount of air to get out of each line
