With all this talk of bleeding brakes, is that on older models or is the PSM a 'special' option that was added?

thanks
PSM uses the ABS system in help control yaw angles in certain situations. That said, you do not need to cycle the ABS/PSM systems while doing a flush unless you have gotten air into the ABS/PSM control network, or have had to replace components of the control network. Dealers do not activate these systems during a flush unless they encounter one of the situations mentioned.
