[size=1em]Didn't make myself very clear looking at the rest of your comment though as, after the first top up of the reservoir, I then bleed the system exactly the same way that he does.[/size]
[size=1em]I don't just top up the reservoir and then do nothing else.[/size]
[size=1em]That's not bleeding the brakes[/size]  Smile


No worries Dynspud, I didn't think for one moment you just topped up the res when flushing for new fluid.  [img alt=Smile]http://foc-u.co.uk/Smileys/efocicon/smile.gif[/img]
Bleeding= Removal of air which causes spongy brakes.
Flushing= Changing fluid which is worn out/ contaminated which causes lever/excessive brake pedal travel which may cause brake fade when the fluid gets hot.
