Danny1997 Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Recently bought a ford fiesta mk7 zetec s and the brakes are spongy. I have changed the discs and pads, bled the brakes and adjusted the rear shoes and there's no difference. Any idea on what else it can be?

MasterTechTip Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 It will need electronically bleeding using either Forscan or IDS (ford dealer) I'm not sure if other diag equipment can bleed it this way but it's what I'd try first. A normal brake bleed doesn't always get the air out of the ABS units on these cars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To save on the cash my son was to change the brake fluid next year, for the sake of £40 I'll let Ford do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
