Re: 1984 Audi 4000S Quattro brake bleeding
Do audi's require a different brake bleeding procedure after you replace the master cylinder, I have a 1993 quattro 100cs and I'm having problems. Any suggestions?

Re: 1984 Audi 4000S Quattro brake bleeding
abs equipped?
Are you using a pressure bleeder? Or the old foot method?
What problems are you having?
If you are using the foot/ pressure bleeder method I recommend that you
bleed the master first by slightly opening 1 brake line at a time on the
master, pump if needed until you get a solid stream of fluid out, close off
that line. Do that with all of them and then bleed at the 4 corners
furthest away from the master. There might be a valve that you have to
hold open at the rear axle, but I am not sure of your model having this.

Thanks for the new information. I'll use that trick you said about bleeding at the master cylinder. I've never tried that before and that should help. Thanks
