Brake reservoir grommets

[89325iturbo]

My brake reservoir grommets were pretty much toast, so picked up some new. Once I remove the fluid from the reservoir does it just pop off.
Once grommets are replaced, does the system brakes/clutch Ned bleeding or just top the res back up.

1) yes. The reservoir just pushes into the grommets.

2) I would recommend bleeding the entire system when you're done. Short of removing the calipers and forcing brake fluid back up to the reservoir, you are likely to have small air bubbles introduced into the master cylinder during the reservoir change.

Remember to protect painted surfaces and your eyes from flying brake fluid.

stuff a towel/bunch of paper towels under the master and use a syringe to get as much fluid as possible out of the master.
