The "proper" way to bleed the GS brakes is with Lexus computer that opens up each ABS channel. However I have bled the system successfully with just turning the key to the ON position so that the ABS pump is activated. I then bleed using the normal standard method using a 1 man bleed kit. My brake bleed siphon pump does not work very well on the GS.
