Re: [diesel_mercedes] 220 115 master cylinder help

 

Was the RF caliper locking up before? (pulling to one side, wearing
faster, glazing the rotor)
Is that the same one that no fluid comes out of?
Is the Master cylinder new?

Try the old method of someone stepping on the pedal.
While bleeding my wife's Volvo, one of the bleeder valves wouldn't bleed
with the pressure bleeder, yet did so with the old method.
Volvo's are weird, there are 2 lines going to each front caliper, one
just for the front brake, and another that also connects to one of the
rear brakes, so if one line broke you'd still have both front brakes.
Extra safe, yet more time to bleed.
