Babbling can be fun. Yes, your ABS unit differs greatly from the RABS. NOTE: according to the haynes bleeding the ABS unit requires a dealer tool.. Be careful.
You know if it was not for bad luck I would have no luck at all.
Broke the rear hard lines disconnecting the old rear hose. Fortunatly I had Jon's old lines for spares in the garage.
Put the rear line from Russel on, fit a little funny but it worked.
Moved up to the RABS and replaced it.
Went up to the drivers front line. Wrong lines.. Fitting not even close..
Went back and pulled the rear line and replaced with a new OEM line I had in the garage.
Pressurized the system to bleed the rear lines and notice fluid gushing out where the new RABS is.
RABS has a crack in the housing....
Replaced new RABS with old RABS, bled brakes.
3 hours wasted...
Try again next week after sorting out parts with vendors...
