Soft brakes
#11
dont meen to repeat what has already been said, but with the engine off, if the pedals still feel the same, then bleeding is required. it is a safety mechanism built into these things that if a something goes wrong mechanically, as long as there is fluid in the system, you can still exert pressure on the pads. albeit human pressure, not amped up Smile . My point is soft brakes are 90% of the time due to air in the system. the other 10% of the time its aging pipe work Smile (just the experiences i've had in the past)

To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be!
