I recently had to change the slave cylinder on my x reg 8v fiat punto elx, I had to replace it with a genuine fiat punto slave cylinder. The problem I have now though is I can not bleed it at all! Please could you offer your help!
 
1 Make sure brake fluid reservoir is full.
2 Fit a clear neoprene (or silicone) tube to bleed nipple with end into a jam jar
3 Open brake bleed nipple
4 Pal presses brake pedal and holds it down
5 Close bleed nipple
6 Pal lifts brake pedal.
7 Repeat 3 to 6 and top up reservoir until no bubbles come down the neoprene hose

If fluid is not coming down fit a new flexible brake hose as it may be collapsed inside or someone forgot to top up the fluid reservoir. :)
