    Excited to see the brake bleeding upgrade. Last month, I did the lines on my E38 and the brakes have gone from acceptable to absolute crap. I made the mistake of not plugging the lines for over a day and I probably have air in ABS pump. I used a pressure bleeder to bleed with no luck. Anyways, great video as usual!

      If you left the lines open then you for sure got air into the abs pump. The old school way of addressing that was to go pull some ABS stops in a wet parking lot or gravel. The easy way is via a scanner. I use a Fowell Nt510 to activate the Abs Pump and Solenoids separately while pressure bleeding.

    What’s your plan with the car. Are you gonna keep or sell. If you’re gonna sell it, how does 3,000 sound? Pretty tempting, I know.

      Tempting yes..... I'll be selling it in the new year. I have about $7000 worth of parts to install still.

    Did you “feel” any difference?

    • @DrivingForwardBuilds

      Not really. You have to be pushing the car pretty hard to feel stainless lines. I did this becuase I like the look and cost of the lines.
