going to do it this weekend. how much brake fluid do i need to buy???

 

Get 2 of the small bottles [ pint I think ] , in one shop I worked in we would open all the petcocks and look at the res. every so often to not let get to an open lines to air issue , but we bought in bulk , it did save a lot of pumping , washed floor with hose , water soluble .
But make sure you check a manual , there may be special procedures , because of the ABS .

 

I just did a customers 04. I don't know the exact amount of fluid we used, we have it in gallon containers. 32oz. should be fine, just remember to use DOT 3 fluid. We only changed out the fluid in the lines and reservoir, our shop doesn't have a DRB III scan tool to change out the fluid from the HCU (hydraulic control unit) that you would have to go to the dealer to change out the fluid. No real special procedures but having a mighty vac brake bleeder helps the job get done faster.

 

Dot 3 works fine. 2 quart should be more than enough. Went to do mine a couple weeks ago and snapped off the first bleeder I tried. I will most likely have to drill all them out and to bleed. Make sure you use some anti-seize on the bleeder.
