You might want to change that brake fluid a bit sooner.

I just had to replace the brake master in one of my 928S4s (manual).
it never felt 'right' and then the other day started to have common failure symptoms. So out it came and a good used one from another S4 system I had went in (going to manual brakes in that car). Pedal is perfect. I believe it was caused by the fluid being in there too long. Even though when I got it one of the first things I did was to replace the fluid, and I do that every 6-8 months, and right after a track day.
And I can concure that the bently's brake systems are goofy.
I certainly would be dive bombing the brakes if the engine ever stalled!

We just got the second one apart this morning, that took over a week of heating, beating, soaking and a really long chain wrench. 
Now only two valves, six calipers, two pumps and a master cylinder to go, plus a few other things.
