Front brake replacement

Asked by Bjchopper Nov 15, 2015 at 03:19 PM about the 2003 Chevrolet Venture LS Extended

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

After replacing front pads and rotors do I need to bleed only front brakes or all
4 and if so in what pattern

2 Answers

If the brake pedal is firm and the car stops straight without moving around then there is no need to bleed the brakes. If you do need to bleed them then start at the rear and then do the front brakes.

I recently had brakes lines and a master cylinder replaced on my 03 Chevy Venture. The person that did the work bleed the front to brake lines, but said the back to didn't need bleeding, because I have drums is this information correct. Because at this point I still have no brakes.
