Two things.I did it.
The biggest problem was that it was really hard to tell when fresh fluid was coming through the tube. The old fluid wasn't that dirty. It was light yellow, while the new one was just a sliiiightly lighter shade of yellow. There was no clear-cut separation between them as they came out of the caliper. So I was just sitting there staring at it, wondering if it really was a tad lighter than it had been at first, or it was just my imagination. In the end, seeing that the catch can was beginning to fill up, I decided that it must be clean already and moved to the next wheel. And indeed, as soon as I opened the next bleeding nipple I noticed a tiny difference.
After bleeding each rear caliper I pulled and released the handbrake five times, then opened the screw again for a few seconds. No air bubbles came out.
Flushing shouldn't produce bubbles, the system wasn't opened.
Did you notice any difference/ improvement in stopping or pedal feel.
