Soft Pedal

J.D. · 15-07-2009, 10:37 PM

Ideas and comparisons please!!!

Just fitted new brake hoses front and rear.. Bled system, flashed engine up, DSC and yellow brake warning lights came up after about 30 secs and stayed on. Pedal felt soft and brakes still functional. Re-bled a couple more times from the calipers and from unions on ABS pump. Pedal rock solid when engine shut down. Start engine then pedal goes soft at the top. No warning lights on and brakes feel fine.
Can't remember pedal having soft spot at the top but could just be paranoid after doing the work.
Went out for a run to warm everything up and leaving overnight to see if things self bleed and firm up before bleeding again..
Have i missed any air traps???
Cheers for any ideas
