I have reinspected my work and checked that the callipers are wound back, guide pins clean and free, bleed the system and pumped the brake pedal before pulling the handbrake a few times. Doing all of the above has made no difference to the performance and has failed a retest on the same issue.i have also driven the car around a bit to get the pads bedded in. Any ideas
