The real test is whether the brake pedal has a firm feel and doesnt travel any further than it should before the car is being slowed.
I bleed all 4 wheels once a year on each of my cars, just to get the old brake fluid (and the water it contains) out of the system.

I opened up the front two. so that would mean start with the rears first i guess...
When I bleed do I open the screw completely or just enough to leak some fluid? Have the screw opened before the pedal is pushed or push the pedal first then open the screw?
How do I bleed the master cylinder? Is it connected to the reservoir?
Thank you!!!
