Default '02 Montero Brake Bleed

I've tried to bleed the brakes but it seems the like the ABS controller stops the fluid from coming out. Does anybody have the procedure for doing this? Thanks in advance.

No problem, glad to help.

Your comment in your signature is only partially true IMHO.
The 3.5 is certainly under powered for street/top end driving, no doubt.
However, on the low, torque end of the power scale, I'd say the Monty is exceptional. Off road, in 4L, I've never had a complaint.

You can access the entire link and get most of the FSM through that Russian site.

Good luck with the bleeding.

It does go extremely well in snow. A bit better than I expected. We went to a park a couple of years ago to sleigh ride, no roads plowed and every Explorer and Tahoe getting stuck. Snow was about 2 feet deep. I drove right around them and right to the hill. It was quite exhilarating.
