Hello,

I own a R53 and installed a big brake kit from Vmaxx and stainless steel brake hoses together with a new piece of brake line.

Now I have to bleed the whole system. Already bought a eezibleed bleeder and the interface for INPA.
I am pretty sure there is air in the ABS/hydraulic block.

Can someone explain the whole process of bleeding brakes with INPA?

Thanks!

 

Why do you have to bleed the entire system? Let the fluid run out of the reservoir?

For others, if you make a simple "leg" out of wood and then wedge it between the brake pedal and the seat you can keep the fluid from running out of car while you change hoses.

 

I had to change the brake line from the ABS block to the front right brake. I just want to be sure to get all the air out.
Did press the pedal while changing the parts, so the reservoir did not run empty.

Already tried to bleed it the standard way. On the rear, I was not able to get any fluid out!? Will try again next weekend, as I am not at the car now.
Has someone an idea why no fluid came at the rear brakes? Used the Gunson eezibleed with pressure from spare tire.

Thanks!

 

You are able to open up the ABS in INPA?

 

Asked a Mini garage and they told me that it should work. Also read it in BMW forums about it. have not tried yet, as there was no time for it.
