spongy brakes after brake job and thorough bleeding

Post by piperdunlap »

Hi. I just replaced brake rotors, pads, and one stuck caliper on my 1994 940 wagon, bled lines thoroughly, and all seemed fine until I started the car. At that point the brakes became super spongy and idle dropped whenever I pressed brakes. I re-bled all 4 brakes again and problem persists. Any ideas are very welcome. Thanks!
