Brake Fluid: Draining

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Infiniti M56 and 2013 Infiniti M37. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
  • Never spill or splash brake fluid on painted surfaces. Brake fluid may seriously damage paint. Wipe it off immediately and wash with water if it gets on a painted surface.
  • Turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector or the battery negative terminal before performing work.
  • If the brake fluid contacts the brake caliper assembly and disc rotor, quickly wipe it off.
  1. Connect a vinyl tube to the bleed valve.
  2. Depress the brake pedal and loosen the bleeder valve to gradually discharge brake fluid.
    CAUTION: Cover crowfoot and flare nut wrench with a cloth as not to damage the brake caliper assembly.
