automated brake bleeding? no way.
what the FSM is talking about is purging AIR from the brake system. To do that one MUST actuate the ABS/TCS systems while pushing new fluid through from the M/C.
Replacing th eold fluid is a simple job though--'one-man' bleeder kits work great--you start by sucking all th eold fluid from th eMC--all you can get out anyway--you can even loosen the brake line fittings on the M/C to drain the reservoir more fully--just don't drain it all or air will get sucked into the M/C proper.
Fill with new fluid then go to right rear--attach the 'one man bleeder' to the caliper vent screw with the furnishe dflex hose and stick the littl ebottle on the nearest magnetic spot. return to driver seat and pump the pedal all the way down 6-8 times (until the bottle is full)--empty it, repeat the slow pumping until clean new fluid is evident. repeat on other wheel then left rear, right front, left front, ABS pump--every where there is a vent bleeder.
I use Pentosin Blue one year, yellow the next.
