sounds like plenty of air in there..

try having someone depress the brake pedal and hold it down, then undo the bleed nipple, let the fluid out, the nip it back up foot off brake.. repeat

that should work :)

Just fitted 288mm Lmf Brakes to my corsa and when i try to bleed them i hit some problems. When i bleed the passenger side iverything goes ok but it just gets rid of a little bit of distance on the pedal. Then as i try and bleed the drivers side the pedal goes firmer but fluid only comes out on the intial pump :lol: then no more comes out after that therfore end up with no brakes.The pedal still goes all the way to the floor with only 1 caliper working very slighty Any ideas? :thumbs:
