VR6 ABS pump bleed procedure

[Timbo 0]

I'm getting pretty sick of my ABS being intermittent, so I've resolved to replace the pump to see if this sorts it. I've read all kinds of conflicting information about bleeding the brake system when it has been drained ranging from not needing VAG COM at all to some elaborate procedure involving pressing the brake pedal ten times and opening the front caliper bleed nipples in sequence :scratch:.

 

The "best"/most convincing procedure I've come across goes something like:

 

1. Bleed RR, RL, FR, FL, ABS bleed valves, master cylinder.

2. Start VAG COM, run the bleed procedure.

3. Repeat step 1.

4. If still spongy, goto step 2 and continue.

 

Does this sound sensible to anyone that's actually done it? TIA.

The right hand drive brake system (Teves 04) does not use VAGCOM. Using VAGCOM and procedures relates to LHD Corrados. Only step one can be done.

Ahhhhh, OK. That explains a lot actually. Cheers.
