Caliper change out

[USMC2531]

I plan to change out my calipers one at a time. The plan is remove one, install the new one and then bleed that one and move on to the next caliper.

Reading the blogs on bleeding the calipers, there seem to be a lot of people that have issues. I have changed calipers on other cars in the past and bled them using the old fashion method, having someone press on the pedal while I opened and closed the bleeder. Will this method work with a C6

Any comments would be appreciated

Hi there,

It will work, but the key is to NOT let the master cylinder go low on fluid.

Once air is introduced at the master cylinder, its basically impossible to remove the air from the ABS control module without a Tech 2.

Also, NOTE the bleeding procedure in the service manual as this is critical to accurate bleeding.

Allthebest, c4c5
