What is involved? Will I need to bleed the power steering as well as the brakes?


Just done mine! First, I syphoned out most of the fluid from the resovoir and used a large oil filter wrench to loosen the sphere, the replacement simply screws in hand-tight. Whilst you're at it, replace the fluid resovoir filter (GBP5.00, USD8.00 or so?)mine looked like it has never been removed and was pretty clogged!
