94 Q45 brake bleeding

[scct40]

I just replaced my rotors,calipers and pads. The car sat for a few days so all the brake fluid drained out. I followed the fsm procedure for bleeding,starting with the master cylinder,repeated this 3 times. Pedal still goes to the floor when running. I read the previous posts and someone mentioned bleeding the abs actuator. Not sure how you would do this and its not mentioned in the fsm. Any advice would be welcome.

Don't quite understand how you would lose brake fluid overnight unless the system was open. Get some speed bleeders if you don't have them.

Probably air throughout system now.

Oh, and welcome to our board and congratulations for locating your first post correctly!

brake system was left open while I waited for new calipers. No air in the master or calipers after 3 or 4 bleeds, must be air still in there somewhere. speedbleeders are a good idea,but I don't think they would change where I'm at right now.

There are two bleeder nipples sitting on top of the ABS acutuator. Same procedure for bleeding as with the calipers. You'll probably run through a pint or more of fluid before they are thoroughly bled.
