I'd soak them with WD40 for a few days before but anything I should be careful of? Going to get my friendly garage to do it, do I need to warn them about bleeding the system? is there anything peculiar about the way you bleed these systems? I don't want the fragile ABS unit to throw a wobbly. Many thanks. __________________ 2005 S40 T5 SE - Manual. Bilstein B4's.
