I can say the same for my 16 year old Mercedes (one of the original ABS cars). As a matter of fact, this Porsche is the first car I ever owned that I have heard the recommendation to change the brake fluid so frequently. Why do Porsche's need this more often than other cars?


rteichman, Mercedes recommends this same 2 year service. With a coupon, Mercedes charges $89. We have it done religiously. Small price to pay every two years to stop properly! And protects against a costly ABS repair.
