#1: bloody brakes Author: LilLew, Location: PlymouthPosted: Sat Sep 17, 2011 9:07 am ---- Hi all
i am still having problems bleeding my brake 3 out of 4 bleed nipples snapped so i have drilled them out and fitted some bolts
attached the auto bleed kit and went around and undone each bolt and the fuild comes out then do it back up a couple of times on each wheel and then unattach the auto bleed kit
press the pedal and there is little pressure so pump it and you get some good pressure so start the car and then you loose ALL pressure

You need bleed nipples not bolts.
GTI 180 needs bleeding with Peugeot Planet.
Your just wasting your time until the job is done CORRECTLY!

Go and buy some new nipples from either a dealer or motor factor.
