What order do you bleed brakes on a Subaru Impreza?

The recommended order to bleed the brakes on a Subaru Impreza may vary depending on the source. However, based on the information from the search results, the general consensus is to start with the caliper furthest from the master cylinder and then work your way towards the closest caliper. Here is a suggested order based on the search results:
1. Rear passenger side
2. Rear driver side
3. Front passenger side
4. Front driver side
It is important to note that bleeding the brakes properly may also involve additional steps, such as cycling the solenoids in the ABS unit, which can only be done with a Subaru select monitor. Additionally, some sources mention the need to bleed the ABS module using a specific tool. It is recommended to consult the vehicle’s service manual or seek professional assistance for the most accurate and detailed instructions.
