2010 lx570. Need to use it this weekend for vacation. Just noticed suspension fluid above the rear axle etc. Line rusted goes from driver rear area over to ahc tank. Is that a big deal to replace?I can just replace it and just add fluid to the tank? .It's low , but it didn't run empty. Please help time is of the essence
Second picture shows where the leak is.Basically , there's an insulation on the tube above the exhaust pipe makes it look like it's different diameter tubes , but obviously it's the same always through
I narrowed down the part number
48998-60010
Is there a bleed procedure needed after replacement or just make sure enough fluid is in the tank? Thank you

There are a lot of links to different threads, including the AHC sticky at the top of this 200 section, but maybe this thread might be what you’re looking for…
I'm planning on changing my AHC fluid this weekend, and have done a lot of research as to the best methods to use.
Everything I found was kind of spread out, so i took some time to combine it all into one step by step document (attached).
Since I've never done this myself, was looking for people on this forum to give me input as to changes in the document, other tips, etc. Then I'll post a final copy.
FYI, the 'I' that's referred to in this document is not me...that's just copy/pasted text from other authors. I take no credit for the content of all this, just the organization...
Hope it helps and you get to take your trip. For what it’s worth, a rusty line is the only thing I think might sway me to consider ditching the AHC for traditional suspension. Be careful and look for other rusty spots. I really hope there isn’t another line waiting to let go.
