Bleeding Brakes - pugtk - 23-06-2013

I went to bleed brakes on my berlingo i just bought and its air locked pretty bad, whats the correct pattern to bleed brakes on these vans?


RE: Bleeding Brakes - Grant - 23-06-2013

Start furthest away from the master cylinder and work you way towards the nearest.

I'm not sure if the berlingo is the same, but on the 306 it goes:

N/S/R-->
O/S/R-->
N/S/F-->
O/S/F

Just double check the position of your master cylinder Smile

Will be the same, does it have abs??


RE: Bleeding Brakes - Mattcheese31 - 23-06-2013

you go diagonal on non-abs . . . .nsr-osf-osr-nsf . . Smile

ABS makes no difference.

All braking systems work in a diagonal.

still could not get pressure in the system, no fluid coming out, changed m/c and still the same,

my method of bleeding is using a clear tube connected to a container filled with fluid with an assistant pumping

never had problems bleeding before any ideas?

It could make the bleeding a lot easier, as if it is a PH3, or a late PH2 with EBD, you could do single person bleeding using Peugeot Planet. It uses the EBD pump to bleed the system for you.
