Can anyone change my brake fluid in OC?

i'm insanely busy and honestly don't know exactly what i'm doing so I just need someone to change it for me, I heard it's pretty easy. i'm located in santa ana, ca. i'll pay for labor + parts obviously. i'm by south coast plaza.

any takers? pm me your price and availability.

thanks,

This is for a BMW, correct? Bring me the car, and the brake fluid, and I can take care of it for $25. Located just south of you, in Irvine. I can come to you, provided you have sufficient garage, or work space.

remove each wheel separately, so lifting the car on each corner and bleed that caliper then move to the next.

^ Make sure whoever does it uses the bmw software to actuate the abs pump, with the software the whole ordeal is really easy and you have a peace of mind knowing that it was done properly. Normal brake bleed will get it done 80% right but if you want the same tight brake pedal feel as the dealer brake job then use the software.

I am also available in West Covina if you want me to take care of it for you, charge you $20 + fluid.

Also think about doing the cdv delete at the same time if you are 6mt
