Hey FL C6.5 Avant, on my C5, it was easy to just take of the return hose from the pump, turn on the car and let the pump do the work pumping new fluid through. Took a few minutes for the entire process. Have not looked at the C6 yet.

A Pentosin engineer told me how to check hydraulic fluid condition: use the dip stick and put just a drop on a white paper. if the spot is light translucent green, you are OK, if dark green or brown, time to change.

And, 11s has been updated to CHF 202. Pentosin is the factory fill. Do not use Febi.

Agree with Beagle on this one. When I did my PS fluid there was no way to suck it out due to the strange filter in the way. So I basically used the return to pump out all the fluid and refill with brand new fluid. Did this about a year ago and it's all good to go.

I may try the return hose. Done that before on my wife's odyssey. even at idle it pumps waaaay too fast--so i pull the fuel pump fuse and dry crank a while.
thanks for the idea.
