the brake flush is usually overpriced. i think my dealer usually runs specials for 79-99 max. it's a pretty simple DIY also.

i do most of my own work on my cars but my back is in a little pain now.i think a $130 is too steep for me.

have a friend help. You can sit in the driver's seat and pump the brake while the friend opens the nipple and closes it.. you may not even have to jack the car up if you have a flexible friend!
