The mechanic also explained that while you can do everything well yourself with the foot pedal, because of the ABS pump placement, it's possible that you still get some air trapped somewhere.
Anyhow, they pressurized it, used the oil that I still had at hand (Motul RBF660) and it was good. Master cylinder is fine, it was just some air trapped. They also noted, that it's very very rare for Z's brake cylinder to fail.

I find it interesting that the FSM says to use the foot pedal method but everyone seems to use pressurized bleed systems with more success.
