Got up this morning, and thought "ooh, i know, i'll bleed my brakes" (as there was shit loads of air in them)
Ran down to CAF and got an easy bleed kit (have been told that they are brilliant)
Well... After 10 mins trying to open the frickin box, and another 15 mins trying to understand what i actually had to do, I connected it al up like it told me. And .......nothing.
Read the instructions again....... Nothing.
I thought that i was just being a bit thick.
Could i get this damn thing to work.... NO!!
So i went next door, and got my mate to sit in the car and pump the pedal. Ah job done in 10 mins. When it only took me half hour to do anything.
AAAHHH!!!
Another £13 well spent.
Cut a long story short. They are shit. don't pay the money (rather have a few pints down the pub with a mate)
Any one else had the same thing?
Cheers
Ben |

you need to let the tyre down to about 10PSI. |
