I had the rear rotors skimmed brakes worked fine then, we had the calipers off the car and someone unknownly pumped the brakes popped the pistons out so I opened the bleeder up and pushed them back in surely enough the brakes went soft and few days later I got mates around and we bled the brakes as he was pumping I asked him to hold the brakes in place I opened the bleeder before I started to close them he started pumping them again, stopped right away.Tonight the brakes really started to piss me off so jacked the car up we started the pump the brakes I opened the bleeder and no fluid exited the bleeder and now the brakes hardly work WHATTT?????????? HELP pleaseRegardsDaniel Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85081-help-weird-brake-issues/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got Perth brake parts to reseal it for you.
