Brake Fluid Flush Capacity

To completely flush and bleed the Brake Fluid, how much replacement fluid is needed.

'07 TL-S (i.e. Brembo fronts).

TIA.




BTW - got nothing on Search; Tried several terms and no results - I think it's "broken".

Get 2 quarts DOT4 brake fluid, dino or synthetic
It will only use 1 to 1.5 qts in the job depending on severity of crud,
but having more is better than not enough!!

A $2 turkey baster is good to remove most of the old fluid from the master cyl
Place rags underneath - brake fluid eats paint!!
Flush-bleed order for all TL models gen2 and 3: LF= driver front- LF RF RR LR
brembo calipers outer bleeder first then inner

Be safe: if you are doing manual method with a noob helper- place small 2x4 wood under brake pedal so it only goes 3/4 of the travel- thats its normal operating range anyway right- why push the seals and press an issue?
Have fun!
