Td5 brake probs

<< < (3/3)

sparkes:
Had the same problem and fixed by replacing the M/C as you did.  The dealer need testbook to bleed the brakes afterwards to stiffen the pedel up

Jimbo:
Oh bu&&er, this is starting to sound more expensive !

Admittidly (sp?) we haven't bled the brakes in the correct order, RAVE states to do F/N/S, F/O/S, R/N/S and lastly R/O/S. We've done virtually the reverse - furthest from the m/c working ever closer. RAVE also says that you only need to bleed with Testbook if the ABS block has been changed.

The plan is to try the 'correct' bleeding order, if that makes no difference I'll speak to my local independant chap who has Testbook and see how many beer tokens he wants to do it  :(

This doesn't sound good. I've just brought a 52 plate TD5 with the same problem! Very interested in the outcome. I'm currently in a state of denial so haven't started to look into fixing it yet. I was hopeing someone would say all disco's do the same!
