Brake bleeding

How have people been bleeding their brakes- using a pressure bleeder or a friend or family member with a strong right leg? I just helped my son bleed the brakes on his Audi TT using the VAG-COM computer software and it actually activates the brake pressure booster and steps you through the process, with the computer doing some of it itself. Never in over 30 years have I done it this way! Not sure what that does over the regular way. Anything special with the GT3?

If you have access to a computer that can trigger the ABS valves then you will get a slightly better bleed job (IMHO). Normally the ABS valves only open when they need to. So, even a pressure bleeder will not get all the old fluid out - not a big deal though as we are only talking a few cc.

I've said this a hundred times but I still am surprised no one has made an aftermarket software program for Porsches like VAG-COM. There is definitely a market!!
