I am replacing the axle on my 1990 325ix and I have replaced all the rubber brake hoses. When cutting old brake lines , it had very little fluid in them.
Have the axle installed and was going to bleed the brakes and cannot get any fluid to the back. This vehicle has an ABS system. Read several threads - pumped the brakes 12 times etc. Used a hand vacuum pump - nothing.
Front brakes work.
Inspected lines to the pump - getting fluid to the rear brake line feed at the pump. Opened the rear line from the pump (labeled h on the pump) nothing coming out. Assuming blockage in the pump?
Is it possible to clean the screens in the pump without a complete disassembly? - I dont see a good write up - just people concerned about removal of parts that are staked in.. (see below)
My unit is BOSCH 0 265 200 040 - will other E30 pumps work? or must I get the exact match? Or must it just match the ABS ECU?
Rebuilds are too expensive at this point
