Am I right in thinking that I should consider changing the vacuum pump now? Just checked and it is creating a vacuum - no idea if is is sufficient.

What I'm trying to understand is why has a change in pads and bleeding of the system highlighted this potential issue?
Hi
late reply, but just checking - are you sure that pedal sinking is actually an issue and you are not mistaking it for power brake-assist ? When I stomp on the pedal full force and then lower the stomp force just by tiny bit, I can feel pedal wants to go to floor but its due to the emergency brake assist (it will apply full braking force assist when emergency braking is detected). But otherwise, no, once you press brake it should hold and you should feel proper pressure.
