My brakes have become mushy when I drive and I want to bleed my brakes. I would have loved to pay someone to do it but no one will even look at it they say no one bleeds brakes anymore they just replace the Master Cylinder. Can I bleed them myself I did it to an old Pontiac I had but this has ABS brakes? Is there anything special I need to do not to mess up the ABS?

you can try to gravity bleed them or pump and bleed them the old way.

but i suggest using a scantool to properly bleed the system.

people should do it by you, you have to bleed the lines after you replace the master cylinder, they are trying to scam you out of money. take it in and have it bleed.
