1llmatic will become famous soon enough
not worth it to take it to a dealer...any shop can do it. guaranteed much cheaper than the dealer.

well if the dealer charges $70 for the flush and refill with new fluid then i dont mind. but does any shop out there have the vaccuum equipment so suck all the fluid and bubble out inside the brake hoses?
