Hello everyone

very soon i’ll have to change the front brakes on my wife’s car and i’ll install new discs and pads.

Is it mandatory to bleed the front brakes ? 
If yes, what’s the easiest way to bleed them considering that i’ll do the job alone.

thanks

No, of course not.

The point of bleeding the brake lines is to remove trapped air bubbles. The only way to introduce air bubbles is to open up the system. (for example, disconnecting brake hoses to replace the calipers). Changing pads and rotors doesn't involve brake lines or fluid at all.


Alright
Thank you
