I have a 2014 chevy cruze. How to bleed the bubbles 9ut?

I have a 2014 chevy cruze. I changed the back 2 calipers and now I am getting nothing but big air bubbles and a little fluid mixed in when I try to bleed them. I did not change the front but am getting little tiny bubbles mixed into the fluid on the front passenger and big bubbles mixed into the fluid out of the front drive. Any suggestions on what to do about this.

When bleeding brakes, always start at the one furthest from the master cylinder. On most vehicles this is the passenger rear. Bleed until there are no bubbles coming out then switch to the next furthest, drivers rear. Then the passenger front and end at the drivers front. Make sure that the fluid level doesn't go empty in the master cylinder or this will cause new bubbles to form in the system. If you continue to get bubbles, there must be somewhere that is allowing air to get into the system. If you have no leaks in any of the lines, I would have to think the master cylinder is sucking air.

2011 Chevy Cruze. I changed my clutch and bled the master cylinder and now I cannot find reverse?

reverse on most cars is a canary gear, (coal mine refr)
it is a square cut gear and has no sychromesh parts.
so loves to grind or even balk !, if clutch disk drags even the most tiny about
it means the bleed was not done fully and correct
dont feel bad, clerical clutch lines are super hard to bleed

you forcing fluid DOWN to the slave bleed (niPPLe-zerk)_
and air bubbles want top float up.
a war happen here in counter forces.
in the Chev , factory they used pressure bleeding to do it faster.

or you removed clutch linkage? and put it back wrong
ok told 2 of 4 causes.

not told the job you did only a CHANGE word
did you pull the transmission, says the blind guy me?

most cases the slave and master cylinder were bad
100% sure this ,, if the MC, reservoir was dry .
the fluid leaks out mostly while driving UNSEEN by you until
oops cap off reservoir and its dry or drops day by day.

2012 chevy cruze brakes bleeding procedure

If you have a second person available get them in the driver seat. Position yourself at the caliper and have them pump the brake pedal 5times and hold down, open the bleeder on the caliper you changed until fluid, or air flows out then close bleeder. Repeat until only fluid flows out with no bubbles.

My 2014 Chevy Cruze has a problem with turning a corner the steering kicks back hard when you turn can cause your wirst to get injured.

if it's a 2014 vehicle take back to the dealer , electric power steering is unreliable at the best of time's but a new vehicle should'nt have ANY problems , if they do it's the manufacturer that has to deal with them , also it's very dangerous as it is

I had to change out the rear right brake calipers in my wives 2002 gmc envoy. after installing i went to bleed the brakes but nothing is coming thru. i checked the fluid level and it is full. the fluid is...

The caliper should have been bled on a bench prior to installation. You sound like you hung it on the car dry and empty and are now trying to fill it right there at the wheel. This is possible but takes MUCHO longer as you found out. You can do what you're doing, or take the caliper back off and pour as much fluid in it as you can get, with the bleeder open. What you have now is a huge air bubble that fills the cavity inside the caliper. You're almost there, keep going!!! Good luck.
