While bleeding hydraulics is a pain, it is something that one does all the time with brakes, so it is not a major problem in my mind. One could of course just replace the entire system (which is also pretty easy), but obviously that gets pretty pricey...
the factory hydraulics is a closed system, not meant to be bled or rebuilt. Though after a multitude of failures Porsche did institute an after-the-fact bleeding procedure. Brakes are meant to be bled, have bleeder valves and a refillable reservoir unlike the wing hydraulics. I want to commend you on the cast part you made and it is a darn good thing every 996 or 997 Turbo owner no longer needs to go through what you did...

Dave I appreciate the product that you have designed, but please don't get argumentative every time someone shows how they fixed the OEM one. Guys will be guys and we must defeat this!

Having said that, most of us will probably end up with your product.

Wow, commending him is argumentative? I'm just presenting facts otherwise. I'd suspect few have researched this topic more than me.
