Hi all,
Can I get some advice on changing the brake fluid on my 2007 CLK280 sport.
I saw on a w208 topic that the sequence of bleeding those models is:
Rear right
Rear left
Front right
Front left
I don't know if this is the same for our 209's and also whether this sequence is only correct for left/right hand drive vehicles, so I may have to reverse the right's and left's for my right hand drive car (the brake cylinder and reservoir are located on the right hand side of a right hand drive vehicle).
Having said all that, this sequence goes against my previous knowledge of brake fluid changes where I was always told to start at the wheel closest to the master cylinder and finish at the furthest away wheel. This would give me:
Front right
Front left
Rear right
Rear left
I'll be doing this job with a hand held vacuum pump.
I'm grateful for any advice that can be offered!!!
