I used the bleeder plugs from the calipers to cap off the lines to prevent the dot 4 from leaking everywhere.

You will only need to disconnect the two lines from the master cylinder that go to the abs unit (from on top of the abs unit).

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Thanks for sharing that. OP - If you have any questions when reviewing our tech article be sure to post them in the comment box at the bottom. Our tech will have additional input for you. Let me know if you need any parts assistance.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the link. I had reviewed it before. Really don't want to bleed everything all over again. So the answer to the question is no, you cannot install without disconnecting lines. Thanks for the help guys.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

So you can r/r the brake booster without having to bleed the brakes completely or having to remove the abs system. You will only need to disconnect the two lines from the master cylinder that go to the abs unit (from on top of the abs unit). I used the bleeder plugs from the calipers to cap off the lines to prevent the dot 4 from leaking everywhere. Loosen the four bolts holding the abs unit down, to give you wiggle room. Also on my c2 you will need to remove the amp that sits in the middle of frunk. You can then remove the master from brake booster. I did bleed all four brakes to make sure either way, but they kept their pressure.
