Brake Fluid: Refilling

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:

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.

Check that there is no foreign material in the reservoir tank, and refill with new brake fluid.
CAUTION:
- Never reuse drained brake fluid.
- Never allow oils other than brake fluid to enter the reservoir tank.
Loosen the bleeder valve, slowly depress the brake pedal to the full stroke, and then release the pedal. Repeat this operation at intervals of 2 or 3 seconds until all brake fluid is discharged. Then close the bleeder valve with the brake pedal depressed. Repeat the same work on each wheel.
CAUTION: Cover crowfoot and flare nut wrench with a cloth as not to damage the brake caliper assembly.
Perform the air bleeding. Refer to "BLEEDING BRAKE SYSTEM ".
