RX330 Brake Bleeding
Lexus, RX330, 2004, 32000, V6.
1. I have read that there are 5 points to bleed in the brake bleeding process. Can anyone tell me where the 5th. point is? 4 calipers and ____?
2. While bleeding the calipers, I was not able to bleed fluid from the rear calipers using a hand vacuum pump. Can you tell me why? Does the Lexus require some kind of set up before bleeding?
Thanks in advance,

Nope, no special tools required to flush a system. But for air bleeding, you need a computer to actuate the HCU. Most likey, the port on the caliper is gunked up. Or the bleeder screw is clogged.
FIFTH point is a bleeder on the HCU, don't use it.
