keith carter Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 On the Land rover Defender 200 Series, after replacing front brake pipe, the brakes don't work as well. I've bled and checked everything, but the pedal still goes a good way down, front brakes work only half as good as they should do. Can you offer any advice as to how I can fix this?

bodumatau Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Keith you still have air in the system somewhere, it likes trapping itself in the high points where the pipe goes around corners and has extra bends built in to stop cracks from vibrations, you simply need to bleed it better, I got myself a cheap self bleed system where you pump the fluid in under a bit of pressure, works a charm.
