    Exclamation My Breaks Are Leakin? Wtf

    Updated!
    This mornin i went outside and i saw my brakes were leakin brake fluid AGAIN! and my brake fluid liquid was very low
    i bleeded them about 3times before. do they need to be bleeded again??
    or what other problem could it be for it to be leaking?

    you need to find the leak 1st, fix it, then bleed the system.

    make sure there is a crush washer on the back of the banjo bolts to the calipers...sometimes if you forget to replace/properly re-install that then they will leak.

    take pics so we can see where they are leaking from

    if you have drums on the back, check and see if there is fluid on the back of the tires, if so its the cyclinders, easy fix,take drum of and its where the top of the shoes join. its only a brake line and 2 bolts.

    this is an easy process, jus run thru everything start from the brake booster and work your way to the back, put a lil fluid in and have someone pump the brakes... youll find the leak if you have any common sense
