Default No brakes

I lost all the brake fluid due to a leaking pipe on my mk4 Golf tdi today. I have replaced the pipe but am struggling to bleed the brakes up now. I have bled each caliper front and rear and and still no joy, when you press the pedal it slowly goes to the floor again. I have tried leaving all the bleed nipples open and let it drain for a while but that has made no difference. The car has abs so not sure if it takes a lot longer to bleed the system. I have used over a liter so far and still no brakes. Any ideas fokes.

there should be some bleed nipples on the master cylinder attached to the brake servo,(well there should be if its the same as an octavia) try loonsening these and see if that sorts it.
