Brake Fluid Flush
2004
SL-500
Can I flush and fill the brake fluid using using a standard
Motiv brake fluid pressure container with European reservoir cap?
Does it require any computer control manipulation to activate valves?
Links to videos would be appreciated.
Thanks

Brake bleed without SDS
The WIS does have instructions for this, but I think it is not as thorough for bleeding as using the SDS, and requires extreme caution to perform.
This is one part of the car to take very seriously as it activates on its own without warning.
Read everything here, follow the instructions, use at your own risk, and please be careful.
And I have used a Motiv with the Euro cap to bleed this car. Must use DOT 4+ fluid.
