Check you brake fluid and lines. It may be as simple as bleeding your brakes.


After replacing rear brakes the brakes are now squishy How do you fix this problem?

Bleed the rear brakes and add new brake fluid. Typically the brakes feeling as if they give too much or "squishy" is from small air bubbles in the brake line...so by bleeding and adding new fluid you let out the small bubbles which cause the squishiness. When you changed the brakes many people tend to hit the line as well as not clamp them properly and therefore render the brakes "squishy". Hope this helps. J

Open brake fluid reservoir for the brakes - make sure it is full of brake fluid - put lid back on reservoir then pump the brakes then hold the brakes on - have someone open the bleed screw on the brakes and let the air and oil out and close it again quickly and repeat until the air bubbles stop in the brake fluid, also checking to make sure you do not run out of brake fluid before you finish bleeding the brakes.
