tsx13

hey just have a quick question.. iv looked through threads cant seem to find anything.

anyway. i want to change the rotors and pads on the back/rear brakes of my 2013 tsx 4 cylinder.

should i be worried about loosing brake fluid. or pushing old/dirty brake fluid into the abs system when compressing the caliper piston to fit in the new pads.

i mean; that's standard operating procedure of any brake job with any car... when you push the piston back, the fluid will move too. thus why one leaves the cap off the reservoir.

what im asking is.. will i screw up anything to do with the abs in this process.

I try to flush brake fluid every 3 yrs or so, but have never worried about small amount of fluid pushed back into reservoir during caliper compression. Never experienced any problems w/ this practice. ABS is not open to fluid and fluid only flows back to reservoir.

good luck

If you're worried...do a brake flush before putting on the new pads.

My solutions are the best; I know.
