| I'm going to replace the front and rear brake pads myself but am going to have someone else change/flush the brake fluid. They will be done at separate times. Would it be better for me to replace the pads before or after the brake fluid is changed? I'm thinking I should do it after so as not to push back dirty fluid into the master cylinder when compressing the piston. Thanks. |

Change pads first and then fluid soon after. |

Agreed. What difference does it make if you push the dirty fluid back in if you're replacing it anyway? I suppose if you wanted to get really carried away you could bleed out the REALLY dirty fluid when you do the pads and then replace the fluid later. |
