Brake Fluid Flush Question

[eric1234]

Hi,

I've searched various threads, and from what I can see, the brake fluid flush is a "standard", old-fashioned brake-bleed.

I haven't seen any mention of the ABS pump, and whether there are any special steps necessary to bleed the fluid from the ABS pump. I once had a BMW motorcycle with electric servo power brakes. There was an entire special sequence and routine to properly bleed the various circuits.

Is there anything that should be done with the Boxster as part of the brake fluid flush to accommodate the ABS system?

I have a 2009 Boxster S, if that matters.

Thanks in advance for your advice!

Activating the ABS/PSM pump and control system while bleeding is only required if air has gotten into the control network.  During a normal maintenance flush, it is not required.
