Hey Fellas,

Well you should definitely bleed the brakes if there is any possibility of air in the lines.

Could just be the float has filled up with brake fluid and is sinking?

Woah thats a bit harsh!

Anyway, when you say it doesn't light all the time, just checking, but does it come on mostly when the car is cold/night time/tempreature is cold?

Mine comes on and i can predict it because the pump is a bit noisier and constantly running, you can feel it pumping through the pedal. But if its warmer like midday and i'll take the car out and i can't feel it through the foot nor hear it and it wont warn.

I agree. Go to Main Menu, look down for "Brakes" - isn't that a pretty good clue how to spell it? You had to go past it to create this thread.


Perhaps it's an opportunity for some people to sue their schools for not teaching them properly. Might be worth a few bucks. :-)

Harsh, especially considering his total lack of punctuation. Pot calling kettle and all that.

Perhaps there should be a disclaimer when joining the forum that if you can't spell you will have people make a fool out of you or maybe offer a spelling tutorial to all new members.

Everyone cares about spelling, but completely ignores the lack of punctuation or grammar?

Come on.

PS: This is a car forum, not an english one. Being forgiving for the small things is something we all should be focused on rather then getting our internet rocks off. Honestly, if someone's post structure annoys you, at least make sure your post has some actual topic content on it, while correcting them.

I know I'm doing just the same right now but at least I already tried to offer some help.
