Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf VII, MK 7, Golf 7 - Years 2012-2019

In this video tutorial, you will see how to bleed the brake fluid to replace it with new fluid in a seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf. First, lift the front of the vehicle and remove the wheel by unscrewing the bolts. Now, remove the bleed screws located on the brake caliper, as shown in the video. Next, open the cap of the brake fluid reservoir and connect your pump, which will expel the brake fluid through the connecting hoses by opening the screw with a spanner. Finally, pour in the new fluid!
