You shouldnt loose any fluid when changing just the pads

Correct, but pad change time is not a bad interval for fluid change also. Get a vacuum bleeder.

gravity bleeding usually works fine, just takes a long time. if you can afford a vacuum bleeder, then just buy one. will get the job done in seconds per corner.
