So I want to bleed my brake lines. Does anyone know the proper bleed order for the wheels?

Thanks in advance

You start with the wheel that is farthest away first, and work your way to the closest one.

what kind of fluid does it take i plan on bleeding mine out completely and refilling with some fresh fluid

I use synthetic from autozone dot3. It comes in a yellow bottle.
Never had any issues.

Went to the garage and checked, it's Prestone Full Synthetic FYI.

for the GS i thought you did the rear left first?
Something about it being further (as far as brake line routing is concerned)
from the master cylinder.

Now I'm 2nd guessing...

The master cylinder is on the driver side.

Yes i know that but from point A to point B it is not a straight line.
I 'thought' i had read a post somewhere that said it was this
reason that you started out on the passenger side but i
am pretty sure now that i'm mistaken.

I checked ALLDATA and it was even more useless..I guess
Lexus uses a scan tool to bleed the brakes without any regard
to sequence.

Thanx!

The distance in length is almost negligible. Wouldn't make sense for the lines to extend further than it has to be. I'll look under my car again, but I'm sure the brake lines for the driver side does not extend over to the passenger side of the car. I just bled another GS yesterday with the sequence above, and it's fine. No air at all.

Either way, Lexus has a sequence of bleeding the front brakes first, and then the rear, but that's with the Techstream scanner.

How did you bleed the rear brakes? Key on and hold the brake pedal? Does that burns the motor?

When u put they key in and turn to the ON position...the brake booster will kick in...no need to pump the brakes.
