Showtime Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 I need to change the brake fluid in a 2001 V70 w/ ABS. Can this be done safely in a home shop enviroment? Is the procedure any different than on a normal non-abs car?Thanks- Showtime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bay13 Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 The abs on the Volvo is not an issue. Bleed LF, RF, LR, RR. That's different than most cars, but it's the way Volvo says to bleed them, so I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the old school have a buddy help you/tubing and bottle works as well?-Showtime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
