I want specific information about the process, so that I'm prepared when the time comes. I have a Motive pressure bleeder and VCDS. Already searched as much as I can, but still am a little confused.
1. Does the car have to be on a lift or jackstands with no wheels touching the ground? Why?
2. Is 29 psi really necessary? Seems high... don't want to damage any seals
3. Do both front wheel bleeder valves need to be opened when flushing the ABS? How about the rears wheels? I want to have tubing and bottles ready
4. What is the purpose of running the output test?
5. Does flushing the ABS use a lot of new fluid? I have 2 litres for brakes + clutch + ABS, don't want to run out halfway through
