Can you tell me how to bleed my brake lines cause i think there might be air. My break pedal has a real squishy feeling and i had the pads changed only four months ago. what else could be causing this feeling on the brake pedal?

Take the car back to where the brake work was done and get them to bleed the brakes properly. If you have to ask how to bleed the brakes you shouldn't be doing it.

Also buy a Haynes manual.

check the how to's on bleeding the brakes, its been 4 months so more than likely the shop wont do it for you for free unless its apart of some warantee.

You'll just need about a liter of brake fluid, clear tubing, and and extra person.
