    Dear All,
    I'm about to bleed my Prius 2012 plug-in brake line in the rear wheel. I'm curious whether we can do it with the gravity method?.

    A common procedure is to enter "ECB invalid mode" first, so the car will not close valves and thwart you when it notices pressure dropping in that line, then use a good Brake Rock and let the car help you with the bleeding.
