OhareFred Posted January 4, 2020 Report Share Posted January 4, 2020 When you bled the brakes did you cycle the ABS pump? I have heard that bad calipers can cause this. Which did you replace? Maybe another has gone bad.... 2late4u 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OhareFred Posted January 4, 2020 Report Share Posted January 4, 2020 There is an issue with the rubber lines going to the calipers getting pinched by a clamp. The clamp gets rusty and squeezes the rubber line. Other then that I’m kinda out of ideas but maybe someone else will chime in.... 2late4u 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
