Thread: Puma [or any ABS] Defender brake bleeding method?

I'm at a point where I need to bleed the brakes on my 2.4 MY10 110.

I have read that the workshop manual "simply" indicates that the ol' fashioned pump-the-pedal-'til-fluid-is-clear method is how to do it (and yes, am aware of the advice of NOT using long strokes, to avoid sending muck through, and siphoning old fluid out first).

I have also seen that some have:
- had problems getting a proper bleed, and have used the activate-ABS-on-low-adhesion-surface method to finish the job, or
- made a bridging switch to the ABS to activate the ABS pump, or
- used the procedure on their diagnostic tool of choice to activate the ABS pump and bleed the circuits, or
- used a vacuum bleed tool.

So, my question is: for a Deefer with ABS, does the ol' fashioned pump the fluid 'til clear work in real life, for most people?

Dont use vacuum pump, better to use the pressure bleeder.
I have a pressure bleeder if you want to use it, Im near mornington so pm me if you want to use it.
