How do you know it's the right side caliper? Have you bled the ABS unit (actually bled with a computer, not by skidding a tire)?

it's the right calliper because that's the caliper i am bleeding. I was successful, but not without a nightmare. The lady at speedbleeders never shipped, disappeared. I ordered Amazon, wrong size and they let in lots of air. so i spent the morning doing it the old fashioned way. squeeze/loosen/ tighten. took over an hour, but good brakes now. I have ordered what i think are the correct speedbleeders from Amazon. the OEM bleeders have an o-ring. do i move to o-ring to the speedbleeders? they should be here tomorrow and i will use them for left front and rear. i'm too old for this!

I had great luck with a vacuum blender. cheap on amazon. takes a few min, and no need to replace the bleeders. sounds like maybe you got a bad one? how much fluid have you flushed though it?
