    The pressure bleeding went super easy today, just had set to about 12psi on the Motive tank, and the Smotivepro 46mm cap adapter from Amazon held the pressure without any leaks. It went real quick, and easy. I disconnected the 12V battery before doing this just to be safe. No DTC was set after a test drive, pedal feels the same as before. All in all, this was such an easy job with the pressure bleeding system, I like it a lot.

    Just be aware that if there were any bubbles in the head-end components and you did not use the scan-tool-initiated procedure to bleed them, you may not notice any problem until you are in a braking situation that uses the passages not bled.

    Did you really mean 46mm vs your prior post of 43?
    Looking for one of these.

    Oh 43mm good catch! Sorry belated response. Amazon has the ARES brand now, I had to rig a standard quick coupling adapter with a short braided hose extension to make it connect to my pressure bleeder assembly.
