just spoke to vauxhall they reckon the back brakes need adjustment. Does anyone else support this theory. I have also had suggested the front calipers, the person who did them say the calipers were a bit rusty and when they clamp the flexihoses the brakes work fine which appaerently rules out...

done the test. Brake doesn't go to the floor, there is resistance. does this mean master is ok ???

Could hear the rasping of worn brake pads, discs also well scard. Believe me they needed changing. When your driving along and do emergency stop say, they work,the pedal is hard and it stops. When crawling along they are very spongy and pedal to the floor.

thanks for reply - no they don't pump up

Can anyone help. Had new pads and discs put on but now something strange happening. Brakes are really sluggish/spongy unless the revs are up ???? If not excelerating peddle goes to floor and has little stopping power. If excelerating the brakes work fine. Been bleed twice now, don't know why...
