brake system flush

I have a 2000 E430,I want to use a vaccuum bleeder. Any problems with this method ? I have been using this for years on my other vehicles (not mbz). Is there a certain sequence? Thank you.New to mbworld - hope I did this correctly.

There is no means to ensure that your braking system is 100% moisture-free, all the time. However, you can reduce the absorption with regular brake fluid flushes and maintenance. The brake system flush procedure is similar to the procedure of bleeding brakes. You need to carry out the brake flushing for one wheel brake at a time, by opening the master cylinder and draining the fluid. Once done, you need to clean thoroughly to ensure that no contaminants remain inside. However, you need to be extremely careful if you choose to flush your brake fluids yourself. You can choose to avail the services of a professional service company for the same too. Locksmith Dallas
