I have replaced the rear pipe with hose but now I get a yellow light sometimes a red light. The pump works. The hydrolic fluid gets to the rear actuator so not sure what the problem is?? Also car is not always starting first time. It turns over plenty of battery power but sounds like no fuel. Been to two garages here in Ukraine and they both fixed the problem!!!
 
Did I read somewhere it will bleed itself if you keep rocking it side to side with the engine running?
 
Isn't the purging, where you put ignition on and pump throttle 6 times and wait till management light stops flashing, getting the air out?

"Replace the pipes, top up with fluid, go for a short ride, top up again then go to a harsh ride, top up again if needed...it will bleed itself.... i did this myself also after i've replaced the rear pipes... never had to bleed it via tester."

he is usually right ;)
 
To bleed it well go on a field drive it with the maximum safe speed you can and take lots of curves both ways as to make the actuator work at it's full travel as much as possible...it's like a syringe inside with oil both sides of the piston... though there's no reason for red warning if it's only about air in the system, not even too much of amber so unfortunately the only certain way is tio read the fault code with dedicated tester
