Hi everyone.

I just fitted some rear 2 pot calipers to my classic and since that I've noticed that the brake pedal is low. The rears have now been bled 3 times and the fronts have been bled twice but it still feels low Every time we bleed them it appears as though there's maybe a little air in there but it goes clear and we've pumped a lot of fluid through just to make sure.

Granted the car has covered less than a mile since they have been fitted but I don't think that would make much difference.

Any idea why the pedal could be low now?

Thanks,

Paul

have you fitted the calipers on the right sides , with the bleed nipples at the top of the calipers ?
You can fit them on the wrong side and the bleed nipple will be at the bottom and will never bleed up properly

Mine`s been like that ever since I had the rear pads and discs changed. I just live with it now.

Yes they are on the right sides but that reply did make me smile because I've seen people make that mistake before

Out of interest do you sell bleed nipples for 4 pots separately? Mine are becoming rounded off.

Anyone got any ideas?
