I believe the "self bleeding" property just means that, given enough pedal pumps, any air bubbles that might be in the system will eventually migrate to the top. But that will likely not do anything to refresh the fluid itself.Just skimmed this thread, and didn't see this mentioned anywhere: I've read that the hydraulic clutch in the S550 is a "self bleeding" system, such that simply pumping the clutch pedal 100 times or so would clear the line of old fluid.
So if you're really worried about old fluid in the line (you shouldn't be, and it'll eventually clear out from normal driving anyway), you could go ahead and give your left leg a good workout after bleeding the rest of the system.
Anyway, I'm not worried anymore. I understand I'll be fine. I'll just replace the break fluid.
