brake bleeding (mondeo)

[daleNOVAbrennan]

does anybody know the bleeding sequence for a mk2 mondeo,disc all round,just changed pads and disc,think there's air in the system as peddle travels to the floor nearly. any help would be great thanks.

its same as any other car
pump the peddle til it gets hards if it goes to the floor when pumped and pressure is applied then it needs bleeding
furthest from brake servo first then second furthest and so on

its just ive seen somewhere else on the net that you start with the front and work in a x pattern on mondeo, which confused me, as i always started rear furthest away from servo.

Bleeding ABS systems is sometimes different to non ABS. On a vauxhall IIRC the sequence is right rear, left rear, right front, left front.

One thing to be aware of is on some cars you might need the dealer computer to modulate the ABS unit/change it's settings in order to bleed properly.
