Got my wife to help me bleed the brakes and the problem still exists, I don't think there is air in the system, something else must be wrong. When I pump the brakes, the pedal does get hard but wait a minute or two and the pedal goes to the floor.

I took a look at the front calipers and there is quite allot of visible piston (3-5mm), this is with the pads against the disk. This space is due to the large calipers with 11" Granada rotors, If I add this space up on all pistons, its quite allot.

I am wondering if the pistons could be riding back and have to travel too far when the brakes are applied.
