Brake bleeding question

[mattatk]

Hey bringing this topic back up....

I'm new to all this & also noted in the Bentley Service Manual that the PST2 is required to bleed brakes on my boxster s with PSM. Does anyone know if you can just turn off the PSM & do it the old way?? I think i read somewhere that even if you turn off PSM it is still on automatically until a certain speed?!?
Thanks in advance,
Matt

Hey; while this topic is being slightly revived, I just replaced my brake booster, and had to remove the ABS unit to pull the rusty (internally) booster out. I now need to bleed the ABS and brakes and understand bleeding the brakes, but not the ABS. How should I proceed?

You need access to a PST II/PIWIS/Durametric system to cycle the ABS system while bleeding it. Those three systems are the only ones kown to be able to do this....................

JFP,
I am familiar with the PIWIS and Durametric, could you please elaborate more on the (PST II) ?

Would a power bleeder cycle the ABS system?
