brakes stuck on after bleed?
 
My brakes were spongy and practicaly non-existent, so bled the brake lines using the two person method, brakes worked fine for a few times, then all of a sudden they siezed up, and now the brakes wont disengage, regardless of further bleeds etc, any suggestions? 2001 classic impreza if it helps

+ if it helps, opening the bleeder valve released the brake , dont know if its of any use

when you say the two person method ??

As in I turn the valve until fluid comes out while someone else pumps the brake

Post up the exact procedure you used from which caliper order you went and at what point you opened and closed the bleed nipple,what tools you used,milk bottle etc,if you removed the cap and kept an eye on the levels etc.....
I'm sure someone will figure it out.

Are they standard calipers with 1 bleed nipple?
