I am having a pig of a time trying to get my brakes properly bled. I am running 4 pots with a Cooper servo unit. This is a front/rear split system with a pressure reducer valve in the rear section. The pedal pumps up ok and holds firm, but is very spongey if not pumped. Anyone else had similar problems??*tired*

Always an arse of a job.

If it pumps up then holds steady then it's just air in the system.

I generally find it takes longer than you think to get all the air out of the rears, so bleed them some more.
