2003 honda accord v6 with ABS
An apparent rust induced failure somewhere (still havent figured out where) made the brake fluid run low to where there was almost no brakes left (pedal most of the way to the floor for partial weak braking) nearly putting my girlfriend in an accident...
I noticed the brake fluid was super low (but this honda fill thing is a PITA to figure out how much i'm even supposed to add - i'm pouring a nearly clear fluid into an opaque container with poor markings??) and added some, still diagnosing the leak...
I assume if fluid is coming OUT somewhere that's probably a sign air could be coming back in, but I wonder if it's on a return line or past the ABS unit somehow - there was brake fluid inside the left rear wheel dripping from the disc. I wont be able to verify what is leaking until I can put it up. (garage in use with a different broke car)
how do you even bleed an ABS system anyway? i've never had to before now/all my cars were without it before.
