Default Brake bleeding order

I must be search-impaired this afternoon. I know this was posted but can't find the thread...
What is the correct order (DR out, DR inner, PR outer, PRinner, etc) for bleeding 993 brakes?

I'll get it out of the way....


Thanks!
john

Kary,
Thanks, how about which caliper (inner or outer) on each wheel. Is it always outer first or inner first?

Thanks!

Outer first, then inner. Follow the logic & you'll be set for every car: start w/farthest from the master cylinder & work your way in.

BTW, FWIW the Porsche shop manual specifies this sequence for a brake flush, but states that no particular order is necessary for just bleeding the brakes.
