Brake probs

Post Wed Aug 24, 2005 10:01 pm

Fitted some willwoods the other day and also a new master cylinder from a 750i but everytime I bleed the system the pedal don't get very hard and feels poor after a few days. I just don't know what could be wrong as far as i know everything is tight and there is no leaks that i can see. And to make things worst, the brake light switch has broke also!

Any ideas guys?
