Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

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.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

i didn't really know where to post so sorry if im in the wrong place. i changed my brakes yesterday, and while using the C-Clamp to push the press back to slide over the new brake pads i heard a little "pop". i didn't think too much of it but when i tried pumping the breaks to get them working again nothing happened. all my brake fluid wants to stay in the reservoir so all i am doing is pumping air. i have absolutely no idea how to fix this but i cant go without my car and im sure not taking it to a mechanic so he can charge me $1000 just to tell me it was clogged or something. any help would be much appreciated

POST 2Original post

Need some info on the car.....996 I assume? Year? You just changed the pads? Did you bleed the brakes? Or both? When you say "press back" do you mean pushing the caliper pistons? What do you mean by C-Clamp? How the brake pedal feel?

POST 3Original post

Also, any hydraulic line/bleeder screw opened during the process? Did you remove any brake fluid from the reservoir and potentially introduced air?
