Did you forget to bleed the brakes after you changed out the pads ?

No need to bleed when you change pads... it's a good idea, but unless you open up the brake system, don't bother.

But, yeah, it sounds like you improperly bled.

in the "i finally did it" he said he changed fluids..

you may have improperly bleed the brakes. Did you bleed em or just drain and fill the fluid? Lemme know, Ill give you the step-step on it

you guys are on the nose, im retarded but hey i learned something and saved A lot of money... i bled them incorrectly...
when i did it the 1st time i just pumped the brake ONCE then let the fluid drain out... but for those who dont know, you must do it multiple times (we did it 8-10 times) and the feel is awesome, stock feel, oh yea i put on Axxis Metal masters
