hi all,

I'm new here.. I've been owning my fiat coupe 20VT for about 2 years now, recently i encounter an issues with my front brakes. when braking my car tends to pulls to the right. it feels that my right brembo brakes more than the left causing it to pull to the right. so i took out the pads clean up the brakes. than i tried to bleed the brakes because it was never bleed before. i bleed the right first with no issue. but when it came to left, no fluid came out from both nipples. i took out the incoming steel line entering the caliper (while someone was pressing the brake paddles) there was no fluid coming. has anyone encounter this before? :bang: now im stuck. and my car been lying around for about 2 weeks now.

yeah. its comes with ABS.. the fluid isnt so dirty.. i'm guessing there is a blockage too.. is it possible if i open the line to the ABS unit and use compressed air (6bar) to flush it through.. has anyone done this?

wheel cylinders would / should still pass fluid through a nipple - surely..??

the big question,do we need to activate the ABS pump when refilling / bleeding? i'm not sure about this.
