Anyone know the flushing sequence for the four brakes? I've got ABS.

apparently abs cars need to be drained in a certain way according to their plumbing (by this i mean a certain corner before another); it minimises the chances of air entering the system (non abs cars are less vunerable to this) its different for every car according to the way they run their brake lines. some abs systems also have a seperate abs flush screw.

nah as far as i know there is no specific order for draining the brakes...on accords we have a seperate drain on the ABS modulator to flush the fluid from there. Grab a workshop manual if you arent sure, it details everything in there.

if your unsure, start from the LH rear wheel, then RHF, then RHR then LHF, flush the ABS 1st, also so not let go if the hose on the abs bleed nipple as you open the nipple, keep pressure on it all the time while opening the nipple. dont let the ABS resivor run low of fluid and you can either bridge the ABS PUMP relay or turn the ignition on till the ABS motor stops running when the Accumulator is full.
