Good idea to renew these fluids.
Brakes: I bled the brakes without any special consideration for the ABS. Begin with wheel closest to the brake cylinder, that is driver/front;passenger/front;driver/rear; and passenger/rear. I happened to remove reservoir to clean out deposits. However, a complete bleeding must be performed thereafeter to remove all traces of air in the system.
Dexcool: Never mind trying to get at the drain plug. Instead, remove the lower radiator hose at radiator end to drain. Reconnect the lower hose to begin flush. I prefer to flush by filling radiator with a citric mixture. I used the Mercedes Benz citric mix. I then ran the car with the top radiator hose disconnected while continuing to supply fresh water through reservoir. Continue until fan turns on and clean water can be seen exiting from top hose. Thereafter, disconnect the lower hose once again to drain residual water used for flush. Replenish with 50/50 mix. Pour slowly to all air to escape from system.
Good luck.
