I've been a mechanic for over 30 years and I love watching Scotty's videos because I always like learning something new. However, I think this video might unintentionally suggest to some people that bleeding brakes isn't necessary and/or that air only gets in brake systems when there is a leak, which is not true. Brake fluid is hydroscopic and absorbs ambient air moisture over a long period of time, which is why some manufacturers still recommend brake fluid flushes as a maintenance item as the car ages. If your pedal is spongy and the fluid is dark, it is absolutely worth flushing the brake fluid before running system scans and other expensive diagnostics. You can do this by bleeding and adding more fluid until it comes out clean at each wheel if you don't have pressure bleeder. I flush brake fluid all the time on older and/or high mileage cars and people can't believe the difference it makes. (One person swore I must have changed all her brakes because she couldn't ever remember it working so well!)

@@irontiger0462 well, when the fluid gets old it can start corroding inside yes and screw things up, mainly because brake fluid is hydroscopic & absorbs moisture from the air, actually the manufacturers recommended fluid replacement every two years. But most people never do. I am a life long semi retired mechanic by trade as well. And I haven't seen brake lines corroded out from the inside. But sure as heck have replaced a lot rusted out from the outside up here in the rust belt!

I don't think the tranny fluid has even been changed and it looks ok, but I'm going to change it anyway, esp since Scotty said Toyotas don't shed clutch material like other vehicles and it was ok to do even at this point. Problems now: Crankshaft seal has a VERY slow leak at the timing cover (going to live with it), it's got a slight idle issue I'm obsessing over, but can live with if I have to, and the slightly spongy brakes which I'll probably address with new MC, but could also live with if I have to.

2005 Prius with 150k burns 1 quart per 3000 miles too but gets over 30 mpg giving it full throttle all of the time you’re not squealing the ABS! People will still tailgate you and play bumper cars until your car gets totaled (my story anyway...)

i had similar problems with my lexus is. always thought it was air, so i bleed it several times and nothing. i changed the master cylinder, nothing. i changed one front caliper, still nothing. then i found out it was the rear brakes. the guide pins got stuck from the rust because the lube dried out and i had the car sitting for a few weeks. i had to use a heat gun and good ol' hammering to unstuck it.

@@ByDesign333 i never thought of the rear brakes since it takes longer to wear out than the front. i forgot to mention, i even changed the front brake lines. that's how i learned my lesson. the master cylinder and caliper i bought were all used parts from ebay, so it wasn't that expensive. try to check the caliper pistons too, if the rubber boots are worn out or torn apart, dirt can get in and it will also cause it to seize. good luck on your fix.

Yup. Then just 1 squirt with the lines loose and a rag to catch the fluid. Less mess and brake fluid can damage paint and stuff. I recently did this on my wife's 07 Rav. Her master cylinder failed completely and she hit the car in front of her. The next press on the pedal and it acted fine again to carefully drive it home. Scary. TIP: If your pedal ever goes right to the floor, let it up and press again. Don't just press harder like she did.

I've always used a bench bleeder kit too.. Sometimes they come with the new master cylinder just two plastic fittings and two small hoses.. what I'm curious to know is did he have to bleed the brake lines at the wheels and if so what about the ABS module I mean I know his fancy scan tool can probably do that but he didn't show it.
@frankd8204
@frankd8204 5 жыл бұрын
@@joecostantino3684 I was thinking the same thing. Since he opened the whole system, he would have to bleed at the wheels because air got into the lines. Also, since it has ABS, you really should do a scan bleed to push air out of the modulators, which you can't get 100 percent by traditionally bleeding as was shown. Using a bench bleed for the MC also saves time, especially if it is located in a tight spot.

Seals on the Master went completely bad while sitting. After putting in the new one, I realized how far the pedal sank before.
