good breaks then not a lot at all

[sciroccof529bax]

Hi last night I left my dad's pressed the breaks and it went to the floor now it has breaks but at the very bottom. Basically hit the carpet then starts breaking if I press pedel twice fast I have them at the middle any ideas guys

I have checked for fluid leaks nothing tho break fluid is full and if I press pedel twice it holds pressure on Pedel

Sounds like air in the system?
How much meat on the pads?

[sciroccof529bax]

Pads not that old mate been on bout month and half also changed disks at same time but I've neva looked in the rears ...

U think a full system flush and new fluid may help ? Cheers rob

A full fluid change and good bleed of the system may help but also worthwhile looking at the rear wheel cylinders, can weep and not be noticed. They cost about 8 quid each.

Try running the engine and pump the brake pedal a couple of times then press it hard and keep it pressed, does the pedal slowly go to the floor? If it does its the master cyinder on its way out. This happened to me.
