Thought i'd post this here instead of the How To section as it seems to get more traffic, if mods think it doesnt belong here then please move.

Anyway, i have a noob question. I want to change pads, install stainless steel brake lines and replace my brake fluid and ideally i'd like to do it all at home. Would this guide right here: (http://m3.madrussian.net/diy_brake_bleed.shtml) be a good guide to follow? The same guy also wrote plenty of other DIY how to's http://m3.madrussian.net/diy.shtml

Any advice would be most welcome.
 
Hi AlanJ, so you think that's a good guide then? I hope i dont mess anything up following that.. :)
 
Yes - standard routine but make sure you clear up any spills and nothing on the paintwork! When you put the new pads in you will have to push back the pistons, make sure when you do this you have removed the top of the master cylinder and be careful that as you push back the pistons the brake fluid doesnt overflow from the master cyclinder as the fluid is pushed back.
