Great video, thank you. I'm considering doing my own since I already change oil and filters. I noticed you loaded the bleeder with 1.5L fluid and filled the brake reservoir with approximately .5L but only bled out .5L . Does the old fluid always change color after 2 years?

Hi Mate, I think this fluid was long overdue for a change thus the significant change in colour! Cheers Drew

In a 1999 ML 230 you have to remove the front wheels. The rim is too close to the nipple to get the plug on. Also, the pressure in the Master cylinder won't auto-bleed. You have to pump the brakes while the petcock is open to get a complete fluid exchange.

Hi Mate, thanks for the feedback and good luck with your W163. I have never owned a W163, if there is not a lot of info perhaps you could record a few videos on yours? Cheers Drew

Hi Drew, how would you know when to stop extracting "old" fluid, when you were draining the rear passenger side in the first step? Do you watch the tube for a change of fluid color, or look for bubbles, or some other visual clue that lets you know you're done with the wheel of one side and its time to go to the next?

Just found this video after doing the same job on my 2011 ML350 BlueTec, but not as successfully as you did. I used a similar pressure bleeder, but every video I viewed called for 15 PSI, not 19 PSI. With 15 PSI, I got a trickle of fluiud from all four cylinders. After much frustration and a lot of brake fluid, I called a buddy to to the brake pump/hold routine. In two years, I'll try for 19PSI and hope it goes easier. Will check out your other videos. Cheers from Wisconsin, USA.
