Caps were broken in package. Finally found one that actually fit the reservoir and it leaked through the cap. Very poorly made caps and was not worth the price

I was looking at several look alike models and selected this one because of all of the adaptors it included. I purchased the unit in October but didn’t try to use it until April…way past the return deadline. When I attached it to the brake fluid reservoir, I could not get the unit to hold pressure. After spraying all of the connections with soapy water, I determined that it was leaking where the fitting is attached to the adaptor cap. There was nothing sealing the metal connector to the threads of the plastic cap. Because brake fluid is corrosive, I could not use a sealant like RTV silicone or teflon tape. After a few hours of research and brainstorming, I purchased JB Weld epoxy and applied it to the threads on the metal adaptor, screwed the cap and adaptor together and let it dry over night. Next day I hooked the system up to my car and it held pressure.The unit has plenty of of storage capacity, no issue there. There are no instructions to speak of but there are many YouTube videos on how to use similar products so that shouldn’t be a problem. As for value, this was 1/2 the cost of the leading brand of brake bleeding kits out there, if you can make it work, it will do the job.

I haven't used this brake bleeder yet, but I wanted to just put a warning out to potential buyers to be warry of the instructions that come with it. They are inaccurate and, if followed closely, could lead to issues. To be honest, the only reason I bought this one was because it was the only one that appears to come with multiple caps to fit various vehicles. I have multiple car of different makes, so I'm hoping that this will have me covered.In regard to the instructions, first, the instruction say to open the brake bleeder screw BEFORE you attached the fluid catch bottle hose to it. Obviously, this is incorrect and will result in a mess and, worse, possible introduce air into the brake system. Don't do this, attached the bottle hose first, then open the bleeder screw on your caliper.Second, the instructions say to have a helper inside the car to pump the brakes while bleeding. Yet, the product is marketed as a one-man brake bleeder tool. In fact, the whole purpose of this type of tool is to allow you to bleed your brakes by yourself without needing a help to pump the brakes. Obviously, whoever wrote this simply took some generic instructions on how to bleed brakes and used that as the instructions for this tool.If you've never used one of these bleeder pumps before, the best thing to do is to watch a video or two where someone demonstrates the process. It's pretty straightforward, but better to watch someone who knows what they're doing first for safety reasons. These are pressurized units, so better to be safe and know what you're doing. There are plenty of videos on YouTube, so don't rely on the instructions that come with this unit.I'll update my review once I've actually used the unit in case I come across any other deficiencies.UPDATE: We’ll, I tried the brake bleeder on my 2015 Jaguar F-Type today. Major fail. I used the 45mm master cylinder adapter that came with the kit, which is indicated to be for European cars. I attached the adapter, filled the tank with brakes fluid, tightened everything down and went to pressure test the system to make sure it would hold pressure. No sooner did I start pumping the bleeder when I saw brake fluid gushing out from around the adapter. By the time I was able to stop it, it had run down and stripped the paint from part of my engine bay before running out the bottom of the car. After a long annoying cleanup, I tried again, tightening the adapter onto the master cylinder even more tightly this time, and going very slowly to avoid another gusher. Again, I say brakes fluid draping out around the adapter. No go. Complete waste of time. They’ll be getting this junk back.

Pump worked well for bleeding the clutch on my Audi A3 after several failed attempts with other bleeders. Great value and worth the money.

I read the reviews and I know the connector is usually leaking and I found out it do come with a rubber gasket for the cap, after using it and the leak stop, it hold pressure and do the job, not bad, I am using it on BMW E46, also it come with 4 caps in my case.

The container & hand pump, while they work, it's much more of a chore than I'd like.. if the pump handle had a longer draw on it, it would be much better. As for the adapter "craps"... they're not worth the plastic and rubber used to make them. After investigating, I was able to come to the conclusion that the leak is caused by the excessive amount of play that is left in the center section of the caps, where the fitting for the pump hose comes through, as that's where it leaks when it does. I got it to stop by adding a moderate layer of bearing grease to the rubber ring, and by spinning the fitting around with a large amount of grease, then wiping away the excess... however, this was short lived because a loud POP was heard while I was actively attempting to bleed the second caliper I was on. turns out, the cap blew off, sending brake fluid everywhere, forcing me to sprint to my equipment to get my dawn/water mix bottle to clean the paint before any damage was done...If you purchase this product... don't bet on the caps working. spend extra on the brass assortment cap set... it'll save you a heap of trouble.
