yes I've searched, but didn't find a confirmed answer for brake bleed on a rx350.


Question is, does conventional bleed method work on these cars? Or I have to turn the ignition to the on position and have the ABS pump to force the fluid out at the rears?


I've done many brake bleeds and just want to make sure. I also have a 4runner and the brake bleeding procedure is different than the conventional way.


thanks

Thanks! So the fluid in the rears came out smoothly? Just want to make sure as with my 4runner, the rears would not come out if you pump the pedal. The ABS pump has to pump it out.

Trying do a one man bleed...just want to make sure and not get stuck lol.

Yes, fluid came out at all 4 corners by simply pumping pedal.

Its obvious, but you do NOT want to run the MC dry. Then you can get problems with ABS IME on 95 Jeep. BTW, gfriend is one who ran MC dry.....
