Brake bleeding procedure
Had anyone in successfully replaced their break callipers and bled them?, Maybe someone that had their calipers powder coated , went to have my calipers removed so I can paint them but I've been told that there is some TRICK to properly bleeding, mechanic says there is no information in service bulletins as to how to do it

One thing I remember is GM saying it is mandatory to disconnect the battery before servicing the brakes. Otherwise, something as simple as opening a door can cause the brakes to initialize, pressurizing the brakes.

Pedal Bleed works
Disconnect the battery. The good old 2 person pedal bleed works just fine.
