No clear answer following a search, as this mainly comes up when people are doing full flush, which I am not... likewise, owner's manual does not actually provide the quanity needed for a flush let alone a mere bleeding.

So... 2 bottles or more?

Thanks!
I used 1.5 bottles and if you keep the m/c full you can change the fluid by yourself it's called a gravity bleed you place a drain pan under each caliper and open all 8 bleeder screws at the same time the fluid will drain pretty quick so you must keep topping off the m/c after going thru a bottle shut the bleeder screws top off m/c and do a quick pop bleed just to make sure you got the last of the air.
