W220 brake bleeding procedure
Hey im planning on bleeding all four corners of the '00 S430 in a couple weeks. Is it a simple two man procedure or would I need any extra tools? Vacuum tools? MB special tools? STAR calibration?

Ive bled brakes on my Swedish sled before using a $5 transparent vacuum hose, 12oz cup and another set of legs to pump the pedal while im adjusting the bleeder screw. Im hoping its as straightforward.

Any insight is appreciated!
