you need to get a dealer to bleed them with a pressure bleeding system

Two of you, or one and a one man bleed kit (two of you is better)
Do Front offside, Rear nearside, Front nearside, Rear offside.

For the Front Brembo calipers it's best to use a twin nipple bleeder i.e two pipes connected to both nipples on the caliper at the same time. Open and close both nipples together.

If you have big spaces between the spokes on the alloys you can do the rears without taking the wheel off.

don't let the resovoir get too low.

P.S You will need the bolts from the brembo's as the 4-pots use a different thread.
