So it looks like I need to get ahold of a vag-com and bleed the abs pump after having the reservoir run dry during bleeding (don't ask...).
Evidently, the software will instruct me to open the *front* bleeder screws on demand. Problem is... they're siezed, one is even broken . I know I know, I should (pardon the pun) screw around with them and try to get them open, but my priority is just getting the car back on the road right now.
So I'm wondering if anybody knows enough about the ABS pump to tell me if opening the back ones will work for the procedure. The (supposed) air bubble in the abs pump is currently preventing the rear right caliper from operating (or receiving any hydraulic pressure), so it makes sense that whatever air may be in there would be in a circuit connected to that line alone.
But hey, I'm kind of an internet hobbiest at best when it comes to this stuff. So if anyone can enlighten me as to if this plan is a horrible, horrible idea (opening the back bleeders when the computer tells me to open the front ones), I'm all ears .
