Re: 4000/5000 brakes






          I had the same problem! I just installed new pads F&R and
          flushed the system and installed new Castrol LMA DOT 4 in
          preparation for Lime Rock. I tried and tried but could never
          get all the air out. No matter what, I still got many
          bubbles as I continued to bleed with no success. I had to
          fly out to Interop this week so I had to bag it and dump
          the car off at the shop to get it done in time. Ugh.
          I wonder where I went wrong too......

          Well, the followup..... The Wife picked up the car Friday.
          They said everything looked fine. They couldn't understand
          why I had a problem with it. They gave her (the car) a quick
          power-bleed and all was fine. Guess Bentley really means
          it when they say "power bleeder recommended".
