Just fitted new 256mm discs and calipers to my corsa. There is alot more travel than usual in the pedal. When engine is off the pedal feels really good but as soon as engine is started it feels piss again. I am pretty sure there is no air in the system as I have bled it abt 6 times in the correct order. Any ideas what could be causing this?

Cheers
