  1. I never had to do that before, so I don't know how. Any leads here to help me in that department? Thanks
  2. Thanks Larry. I guess I will have to look through the forum. I like the car, but the brakes do kinda suck, lol.
  3. Hey guys! New to the forum. I have a 2009 Journey SXT front wheel drive with the 3.5l that I recently acquired. I have been noticing that I have to push the brake pedal extra hard to stop. The pedal goes half way down, then the brakes work a bit. I really have to push harder to slow or stop. It feels like I only have half stopping power until I push really hard, then I can stop. By then, the pedal is just over half way down. I bled the brakes the correct way, but it didn't make a difference. Does the abs need to be bled separately? Is my brake boost going bad? Do I need to replace all the brake hoses? I like to do my own work (have done so for over 35 years), but this Journey has me baffled on the braking situation. I replaced the right front brake hose when I got it, for it seemed to be collapsed. The caliper hung up and caused smoke and a lot of heat. Sorry so long winded, just want to fix her up the right way. This car has the best ride that I have had in a long time. Many thanks guys!!!
