How to Replace the Brake Fluid on a Nissan Pathfinder?

Model: Nissan Pathfinder MK 3, R51 - Years 2005-2012
Part: Brake fluid

To replace the brake fluid on a Nissan Pathfinder, locate the bleed screw on each brake caliper, positioned at the rear of the wheel. Insert one end of a tube into the bleed screw, while the other end should be placed in a suitably positioned container. Press the brake pedal from inside the cabin to collect all the expelled brake fluid. Once bleeding is complete, open the bonnet and add brake fluid to the appropriate reservoir.
