hey guys,
I just changed my front brake pads, and I had to disattach the brake lines (going to the front calipers) to get the caliper off (because the bottom mounting bolt was being a F%@k.
Anyways, I changed both pads on both front whels, bolted everything (incl brake lines) and mounting bolts back up.
I put the wheels on and then poured some brake fluid into the resovoir to test out the pads.
I realised (i am pretty sure) that disattaching the brake lines was not the best idea. I am guessing i have put air into the system
Would just like to know the course of action I should take. (I am not driving the car until i know how to fix it or know the exact nature of the problem).
thanks for any input.
(cheapest way preferable)
