Pray tell, how did you do it?
The way the manual says to bleed them is basically:
> Put rear wheels up on sturdy ramps.
> Top up the fluid reservoir.
> Start the car.
> Get underneath the back
> Connect a small hose to the bleed screw on the SLS valve, and open it slightly until air stops coming out.
> Tighten bleed screw and disconnect the hose - check for leaks.
> Disconnect the pull rod from the valve and work it so that the back of the car goes up and down several times (be careful it doesn't come down on you).
> Reconnect the pull rod and check the sway bar links - replacing anything that is loose or broken.
To verify everything is working, you are supposed to put weight in the back then remove it - verify that the level remains constant.
