Another project with many a thread on the trials and tribulations some have found. Which bleeder if I may be so rude as to ask? Vacuum or pressure?

i bought a orion pressure brake bleeder from amazon. got bore late yesterday and did the job. took 2 hrs to do and was much easier than i thouht. the brake bleeder worked as intended and the cost was 100 cnadian funds. most likely 65$ U.S. funds. was worth every penny

I just installed the LMC5 in my 04 this week. I fired up the car and got the pull key and wait 10 seconds message. I did the optional brown wire mod and did not see the message after that. I had no issues with the lock beforehand and the recall was performed many years ago as well.
