Bleeding the brakes on a 2013 Honda Civic. Honda recommends flushing the brake fluid every 3 years. Bleeding brakes usually takes 2 people, one to loosen and tighten the bleeder screw and one person to work the brake pedal. A one-person bleeder bottle with a one-way check valve makes the job much easier. See the links below for the parts and tools I used:

Thanks for making this short, sweat, and to the point instead of making a whole 30+ min video about this.

@Mikeattempts 5 месяцев назад

Hahaha, no problem! I try to make 'em like I'd want to watch. :)

I was told that I needed my front brake pads replaced when I went in for my free oil change. They also said that I needed a “premium brake flush”. I didn’t like the price, so I’m doing rotors and pads ( done before) and will flush the system. I’m not looking forward to the brake flush. The underside of cars is never very pretty in the upper midwest and don’t look forward to anything severely corroded. It looks easy enough. Nice video.

Yeah, I don't blame you, the road salt can make things much more difficult. Just be sure to soak the bleeder valves with penetrating oil and give it plenty of time to seep in. Hopefully they won't put up a fight and you'll be done before you know it! :)

Be very careful not to spill the brake fluid on any painted surface. Brake fluid will dissolve paint. The good news is that you can rinse any spills off with water.

Yep, brake fluid is nasty stuff! :)

My traction my tire pressure and fcw/Ldw and steering wheel lights are all on what does that mean??

It could be a component in the ABS system but I'm no pro. The first step would be to take it to AutoZone where they'll read your error codes for free.

do you need jackstands for this? or just jack each side up as you go?

@Mikeattempts 5 месяцев назад

I used jack stands but you could use a jack as you go.

i think i need to go to mechanic and flush all the fluid and fill it with new oil.. my breaks doesnt respond properly. after pressing 3-4 times the car stops.

@Mikeattempts 7 дней назад

Yeah, if you don't feel comfortable flushing the brakes on your own, that sounds like something you should definitely have a mechanic fix ASAP.

@roberthouston3809 3 месяца назад

So. You need 4 bottles of fluid? One for each caliper?

@Mikeattempts 3 месяца назад

I only used two 12-ounce bottles to bleed all four.

@CarlosJimenez-fj4ku 23 дня назад

Is it always necessary to bleed the old fluid? Can I just let it et used up with time?

@hyp3dw4ter6 23 дня назад

Yeah you are going to have to get the old fluid bled out. It’s because water (from humidity) gets inside the brake fluid. This makes the brake power weak. Also bc it can build up alot of sediment and clog the brake lines. There’s much more reasons too.

@Mikeattempts 23 дня назад

I'm no pro but I do know that brake fluid absorbs water from the air and also gets hot from the extreme pressure of braking. So, if not flushed at the recommended intervals, the old fluid it will slowly deteriorate the brake lines from the inside.
