I don't mind doing that - just wondering if there are adverse effects - I've never purposely filled my lines with air. Any issue with having to also bleed the ABS/PSM?
If you get air into the ABS/PSM control network and pump, you will need a Porsche diagnostic tool to run a special system activation protocol while bleeding the system to get that air out. This is why we cap the lines, even though we have the diagnostic tool to correct the issue, it just adds unnecessary time to a job, and $ to the customer's bill.
