The system uses Pentosin which does not age like standard DOT brake fluid, so I'm inclined to think that there is no need to flush it. I will verify this with a Porsche technician in a few days.

Raffi, the brakes use brake fluid but on the 996TT the clutch and PS use pentosin.

1.Open bleeder on slave
2.Pump clutch until Pentosin comes out of bleeder w/ out air
3.Close bleeder valve
4.Done.

Make sure resovior stays full when bleeding.



Hardest part is getting wrench on bleeder!
