Hi estiy,


The system is self bleeding, you just need to make full left to right a few times and it should be ok.

I suspect the noise is from the replaced high pressure pipe, it will produce groaning noise if not replaced with OEM parts.

Thanks KHLow2008.I thought the pipe had a different design than the original Honda part,now I know why they don't wish to do anything about it. Your help is fantastic,groan is the exact sound,really appreciated.
