	cool, well do you know how much braided hoses are and where is the best to get them? courtney were i got brakes from?
Joe	posted on 16th Jul 06 at 16:01
	It supposed to be quite common to have a bit of travel/spongy pedal with V6 brakes. Braided hose are supposed to help with that.

	yeah got them working now cheerz for all ya help i thought i was completly f##ked!! but swapped calipers over and bleed straight away!! i did do a search but couldnt find nething so cheerz!! by the way does anyone with the v6 set up have quite a bit of travel on the pedal before it starts braking? cheerz tommy

	That is the problem, you can not bleed the system if the bleed nipples are at the bottom. Swap them round and they will bleed up fine. See this thread http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=293412 [Edited on 16-07-2006 by joe6886]

	no the bleed nipples are at the bottom! should they be round the at the top then?
Joe	posted on 15th Jul 06 at 16:19
	Are the calipers on the correct sides, bleed nipples need to be at the top of the caliper.
