  1. Thanks Glenn, That option is always there, however there are 2 cars in the house and I am hoping I can use the bleeder for a few years atleast plus it is a very gratifying feeling " for the job well done " What sort of small and simple compressor should I look for ? many thanks
  2. Thanks Glen, i'll look into it. I don't have a compressor - what am I looking at ( something like a tyre inflator?- that I have) how does one connect it to the bleeder.
  3. Thanks Glen -what is the name of the australian bleeder that you have referred to in the above photo and where can I get it from. Drew - just to keep my options open, where did you source the motive power bleeder from? anywhere local cheers Ravi
  4. Hello Everyone I have recently started doing some basic maintenance myself on my E39 530D (2001). I have been looking for a pressure brake bleeder, something like this " Motive Pressure Brake Bleeder " http://motiveproducts.3dcartstores.com/0100-European-Bleeder_p_115.html that pressurises the brake fluid reservoir , and apparently makes for a better method of bleeding the brake fluid at the valve, as opposed to pressing on the brake pedal, as some have reported can damage the piston etc. I am based in Wellington, and have tried searching for a similar part here in NZ but haven't been able to find one . Anyone aware if I could source a one in NZ, that will effectively do the same job. The shipping costs from the US are almost as much as the cost of the part itself, so feels like a bit of a waste. Any ideas/thoughts/information most gratefully received. cheers ravi
