Okay, I give.... Please recap 13pt WET bleed method with motive? Do you push everything from reservoir or some that way and reverse clutch slave?

Thanks!

Yes. 13 pt wet all through reservoir.
For me its way easier to rinse and pump a little denatured alcohol through the bleeder to clean the motive than the effort required for the dry alternative.

I also don't understand the 13pt deal...help?

Yes, wet is the way to go. Two pints in the bleeder for me, and everything gets taken care of every ten hours.

Do a search on C4 brake bleed. C4 AWD has two locks (PDAS) that need bleeding in addition to a C2 11 pt bleed....

I only have ten fingers upon which to count, and generally only need 9 to bleed my car out.

Eight caliper nipples and the clutch.

Maybe THAT's why I'm so slow on the track, I dunno.

Where could the other two be for an eleven point bleed?

D'oh! KaiB apparently you are quicker than me; I have only 9 nipples (not 13 as stated above).

You guys were warned and should beware of any thread with "Dork" in title.....

I was speaking of hydraulics bleeding as whole ... 13pts bleed.. I did creative math and subtracted 2 locks to arrive at C2 of which I do not own

How many bleedable nipples in a C2 bonnet area or as I call it trunk?

Are you saying C2 is 10pt bleed?

C2=9. 2/caliper X 4 calipers + 1 for the slave. No bleed nipples on a C2 ABS which is in the frunk.
