    There is brakefluid dropping from the bleed nipple which means the hose is not connected properly and there is air coming back into the system. You should bleed it again as soon as possible

      It’s fine, it’s back pressure from the non return valve, the fluid is under pressure. I’ve been bleeding brakes this way for many years without issue with air in the system

    great vid as always, how much brake fluid should you buy, and do you recommend that impact wrench , cheers

    • @MTechGuy
      @MTechGuy  Před rokem

      Usually take approx. half a litre but allow 1 litre. Yeah the impact wrench is great value

    Hey man, maybe you could do a video on OBD scanners? Like which one do you use and maybe some tips? My friend tried to connect one of his own to my E87, but it did not work. Maybe it was the software fault, i really dont know how these things work...

      That’s not a bad idea, I’ll write it down!

    Hey great video, i got just one questions;
    What is the spray you use after bleeding the break fluid?

    • @MTechGuy
      @MTechGuy  Před rokem +2

      Brake clean

    • @qinisamyeni4901

      Ok thanks and is that tube/hose you are using to drain the brake fluid into the bottle?

    Hello, how did you rise the car in the front part? Where did you put the red lifter? Mine has the engine plastic shield down.

    Did you use the BMW DOT4 Low Viscosity brake fluid?

    • @MTechGuy
      @MTechGuy  Před 2 lety +2

      Certainly did, got it from the main dealer 👍

      Thats an important detail... if you are working on brakes you must be extra precise. You should have mentioned it

    How many pumps do you usually do for each side?

    • @MTechGuy
      @MTechGuy  Před 9 měsíci

      As many as it takes to get the new fluid through, the rear will require a lot more pumps than the front
