Low speed braking

So for some reason I wasn’t getting notifications on some of these replies.

You were absolutely right though, at some point during the 5/6 bleed cycles the air was out and the brakes were fine I was not understanding what the normal brake pedal should feel like. Took it for a drive earlier and all is well other than the brake rubbing from the surface rust that has now accumulated on the rotor.

Thanks for all your help with this!

Also in case anyone is interested - if you’re running the bleed procedure using foxwell via the OBD port and the battery dies (even though your battery charger is connected to the vehicle) once recharged and connected the scanner won’t find your vin or connect to any modules and your dash display won’t turn on and if you’re anything like me you’ll have dropped a nugget in your pants.

Before panic fully sets in you should remove the battery from the vehicle and short the connections in the boot
