My 11-year-old daughter and I are changing my brake fluid this weekend. Putting in the high-performance Dot 4 as there is high-performance driving school coming up early in April. I remembered reading something about the calipers having bleeder points rather than four. I could easily have reached the outer four without taking the wheels off. Now I realize there are inner bleeder points as well which require the wheels to be removed.
And of course, I understand that my 2012 CTS V coupe does not have a jack. I am deciding whether it would make sense to purchase one of those NASCAR type jacks, whatever they are called, or simply have the brake fluid changed when I get my new tires put on next week.
Anyone have recommendations for where I can get a decent type jack without spending $62,000? I don't intend to lay under the car for any reason. I used to do that when I changed my own oil. I could reach the oil pan drain plug without jacking the car. That was before my metabolism changed.
Thanks so much,
Jim
