Hi People

I have a spi setup on my pickup frontend, (engine, subframe, brakes, master cylinder ,discs  and servo etc.)

and while my brakes are very good, the mot tester even mentioned how good they where,

I do still have this problem where as if I sit at the traffic lights with my foot on the brake the pedal very slowly starts to sink, it is very slow movement, and by the time the lights change the pedal is still in the top 3/4 of pedal travel,

I have re bleed the brakes again twice just to check for air, none found (easyibleed method)

its has new calipers, and flexi pipes and copper brake lines throughout, new pipes to rear with new cylinders and hoses, the master cylinder is also new (wood and pickering yellow top)

I am not loosing any fluid at all and no leaks

anyone got anything else I can try?

thanks steve
