I notice a hose broken so changed that then you pressure bleed at 20 psi and bled both front wheels, still terrible, go it be the servo and how do i eliminate that?
Rear dont seem to have bleed nipples unless its something else, any help appreciated
If air has made it's way into the ABS module, you'll need to bleed the system via Forscan or IDS....this activates the ABS pump module to allow air to be removed. Pressure bleeding or normal bleeding cannot do this.
Rear brakes, furthest from the master cyl, should be bled first. Rear calipers do indeed have bleed nipples, you need to look a bit harder.
Servo won't cause a spongy pedal.
