Brake Bleeder Screw Info? (For Speed
Hey guys,
Hoping someone could give me some information on the specifications of the standard brake bleed valve installed in the front and/or rear callipers. I was hoping to do a speed bleeder upgrade, but the brake system has fluid in it in my car (so I can't take it out and measure myself). If anyone has done this modi

For what its worth, I replaced both master and slave recently. Thought about a bleeder kit but than decided against it out of fear of splashes on my nice new paint of that fluid under pressure.
Happy to report that from an empty system I had all 4 brakes done in an hour - the traditional way - and no I am not a pro !
Only during the final stages did I need an assistant to open/close the front bleed valves. The rear ones I could access myself sitting at the wheel and leaning backwards. There are 2 VERY handy holes in the metalwork behind the rear seats on my 2+2. Right in front of the nipples. Nice one ! Saved another 100 Euro not having to buy a remote bleed kit for the rear !
