Rob. Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 You need to re bleed it mate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craiggy1984 Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 i think he means he has activated the pistons in the caliper while there were no pads in it??its an open system so that means that most likely the pistons came out so far as to allow brake oil to leak out as they wernt designed to travel so far,as to wether its ruined the brake caliper i don't really know,perhaps if u insert the pads again,then bleed the brake to replace the lost fluid,and remave any air that may have possibly gotten into the system it may fine once again? don't quote me though lol as im onli half sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craiggy1984 Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 Hopefully thats the plan,and if it is ok just remember to not pull the lever in when there are no pads in the caliper,or even if the disc isnt in between them for that matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Gibbs Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 I did that to my hope m4 it will need new seals and bleeding. But mine never felt the same after that! But yeah thats what you will need to do to get it running again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
