Re: Changing brake pads
no you should be alirght, but it depends how much fluid is in the system. As you will have to leaver (large screw driver) the pads apart before hand to push the pistons back out to make room for the new meat on the pads.
You might therefore need to remove some fludi but shouldnt need re-bleading

Re: Changing brake pads
No, U don't have to bleed the lines. But as one guy stated earlier, U'll have to push the pistons apart within the calipers in order to put on the new pads. Once you have all of that put back onto the wheel...then it will be necessary to pump your brakes for several seconds to get the fluid back into the calipers. EVERYTHING'S REAL EASY!!!
