Brake Bleeding
The process of removing air bubbles from a hydraulic brake system.
Air in the brake lines causes spongy pedal feel and reduced braking performance. Bleeding involves opening valves to release trapped air while adding fresh brake fluid. Methods include manual, vacuum, and pressure bleeding. Proper sequence ensures all lines are cleared. Maintenance every two years keeps braking consistent.
