My 2000S has Traction Control, so in the Bentley there is an additional step. it says once you finish bleeding the 4 corners, go back to the right rear tire, open the bleeder (I forget if it says a certain one), and then activate the Bleed option from the PTS2. There is an equivalent option in the Durametric 6, but it doesn't seem to do anything. In the Bentley it says you may not hear the pump at all wheels, but it only ever tells you to do it at the right rear wheel (for PSM it says only do it at the right front wheel)

Has anyone ever done this with Durametric and did it do anything? Or do most folks just skip this part. Or are there some steps you can do like go activate the ABS and then come back and do a brake flush/bleed.

Thanks

Steve
