Brake Bleed questions

I just had the brakes flushed with Motul 600. I've had the brakes flushed or bled twice before. Anyway, I thought that the brake pedal would be tight so that a slight tap on the brake would be all you need. Just like how the brake felt when I drove off the lot. I've gotten it done from two different shops and used speed bleeders etc.

The pedal doesn't feel spongy but it just feel that responsive. Do I need to get it bled from a dealership that uses scan tools or sth

It sounds like you might have some air in your lines. Did they follow thecorrect sequence i. e: RR-LR-RF-LF? Also, some people like to bleed with the engine running to power the vacuum and this may sometimes cause air to seep into the lines.

Let us know,

go to joe250's site and get his write up.... I bled my brakes through 4 bottles of Motul till I realized I had to do it in sequence.... air bubbles just kept on coming.

now they are tight and nice.
