Hi,
2000 Fiesta.....Did a complete flush of the brake fluid and now the brake pedal travels a bit too much before the brakes bite properly. The brakes effectiveness is fine once the pedal is pushed down fully and I can lock the front wheels up but the travel to do that is significantly greater than before.It's had new discs and pads on the front a few months ago, the rear shoes are borderline - have got new ones ready to fit when I get a chance.
Could air in the rear brake lines have been masking a problem with the rear brakes before hand?
Thanks,
Peter.
