I don't have a DIY on this, but a brake flush is straight forward, but be aware that your front calipers have a inside and outside bleeder valve. I typical shop should charge you no more then $120 to do this, if you have done this yourself before. Look for a video on youtube about brake flushes. I know that this isn't a F85 but the principle is the same

Cool thank you. Done many in the past but first time on the F85. Is ABS flush needed? I was just thinking of doing the four calipers. Last edited by Franktea1$; 11-17-2020 at 07:32 PM.. |

I'm not totally sure, whether or not the ABS pump is flushed out when flushing all four calipers. We used a pressure bleeder to do mine, and just opened to bleed screw and watch the old fluid flow out until we seen new fluid. So I'm pretty sure that the ABS pump was flushed. I perform a brake flush every two years, so my fluid is pretty clean.
