Please walk thro' bleeding a Xantia's hydraulics

Post by ktaylor21662 »

Could someone describe the bleeding of a Xantia's hydraulic system to me, please. Are there any likely problems I need to watchout for?
Thanks, Kevin.

Bleed the brakes pretty much as normal, but you don't need to keep pumping the pedal, just have the engine running and hold the brake down.
Suspension is self bleeding but needs a little help, see the post above.
