Dual bleeder, which one first?

Hey guys,

Brake fluid flush - There are 2 bleeder valves on each of the front calipers. Some say outside first, some say inside first. Which is the correct way?

Thanks in advance

The BMW procedure says outer first, then inner.

I say the same order as you bleed the system.

start from furthest away from the master. RR, LR, RF, LF.

so the bleeder farthest away first.
