Bleeding the brake lines

Post by **MadeInJapan** » 11 Sep 2008, 21:26

Can someone confirm the size of the bleeder nut on the '04 V70? Are the front and back the same size? I can't find any information about this in VADIS and I need to do this very soon. My assumption is it's best to use a 6point box wrench (like with the 850's and S70) but if there are any other suggestions on this, I'm all ears.

Its 11mm on my 01 V70 T5 and 01 XC70

I don't have a 11mm box wrench, my 7/16 box worked fine. Not a lot of torque on the thing.

I think it is identical size on all 4 wheels (Don't remember changing the wrench while bleeding all 4 lines)

Thanks for that...I have a 10mm box wrench so I need to buy an 11. Will do tomorrow and bleed the brakes this week. Been gone all weekend or else I would have done it yesterday or today.
